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.

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.
“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.”

Omg. There is so much more to it. The corruption is what did the country in.
Hey Brian… This “do nothing” artist has helped companies reach record sales with my design skills. I’ve lettered control panels in a NASA wind tunnel and done consulting for the U.S. Air Force. What have you done?
No one will care when the UN invades the USA. Everyone hates us, and more and more countries will be added to the list soon.
