Socialism always starts as a “people’s movement,” with mindless and ignorant people being directed by elitist con men in the background, telling the foolish that by bringing down the “rich,” everyone will share in the abundance that socialism will bring. It is always a lie, and invariably almost all the people end up in poverty, with the exception of the top socialist leaders who live like kings. Fidel Castro is certainly one who has lived that life, and his protege, Hugo Chavez destroyed the Venezuelan economy pursuing the same socialist policies.
When the economy comes crashing down, it is necessary for the leadership to blame an outside source, and when Chavez was alive, he continually named the United States for all of the woes the country was suffering from. In fact, the oil rich country provides 9 percent of the U.S. gross oil imports, which must be a considerable sum of export income to the nation of 30 million people. As such, the U.S. provided a huge portion of the countries income, but Chavez resented that as well.
Venezuela has expropriated foreign and domestic businesses, which means that the people have little invested in the country and are becoming very unhappy with the leadership as it nosedives to complete economic ruin.

Socialist and communist suck nuts, well especially the ignorant fucks that keep voting for them
There you have it the elite central planners (to whom the rules do not apply) live like kings and you eventually have to fight in the streets to keep your family alive. Our government has pumped 9 trillion f**e dollars into this economy since Barry took office and we are still barely treading water. Time to get the socialists out of office. Help for those who truly need not simply want.
Most communist and socialist movements have to have an enemy.
In Venezuela’s case, we simply don’t care.
Ship us the oil, we’ll write the check and you people can figure out why you don’t have rice and toilet paper.
Here’s a hint.
That guy who claims its the US’s fault. He cashed the check.
True!
Even Robert Heilbroner, the world’s greatest socialist economist, denounced socialism as a failure, declaring that capitalism distributes goods and services more efficiently. Democrats and socialists ignore that.
We probably will , the intelligentsia seems bent on world$#%&!@* .
A prelude of things to come.
Fascism starts with a people’s movement as well. Along with propaganda telling you to fear and hate the “other” guy.
That’s EXACTLY how$#%&!@*came to power, using nationalist pride and the fear and hated of immigrants, other religions, and communism.
You people are fucking insane

“Today Christians stand at the head of our country. I pledge that I never will tie myself to parties who want to destroy Christianity. We want to fill our culture again with the Christian spirit. We want to burn out all the recent immoral developments in literature, in the theater, and in the press – in short, we want to burn out the poison of immorality which has entered into our whole life and culture as a result of liberal excess during the past few years.”
