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.

You’ve got military c**p all over your FB, so I know you understand a military costs money. So explain to me again how military weapons are FREE? B
And please pick up the pace. Unless you’re special, then take all the time you need.
If you can’t run a household budget by socialist economics, you can’t run a country by it either…
What the$#%&!@*does that mean???
Numbers? Proof?
Do it. Knock off the pretending to be retarded.

Right, all those people in Western European countries are just hating good, affordable health care, and education. Must be hell. Are all you Fascists bigots really as stupid as you sound, or is it just an act?
Michael Wright sounds like somebody ran out of logical things to say.
Pity.
Just common freaking sense… 2+2=(+4) which is better than 2-2-2=(-2)..
I run my household very similarly to a socialist state. My kids don’t work, yet I provide them with food and shelter.
Looks like you didn’t think very hard on that one.
I’ll check back with you tomorrow. It appears you’re having issues with cognitive performance.
