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.

Bernie’s peeps.
Cant blame the U S for there bs.. Evry month they gotta diff president so wats that tell u Lol smh
US has been builing up Columbia’s military for some time now. Tensions in the border at an all time high. Cocaines worth a lot more than oil.
Venezuela is a beautiful country with great people. They also preserve the rain forest so we all can breath, south America are our neighbors, we should spend our efforts and money in our own hemisphere, not the middle east.
They have also been victimized by their neighbors, smuggling cheap goods and gas across the borders. Gas for its citizens is under twenty five cents a gallon, food next to,nothing, a beer thirty five cents.their part time military unable to stop smuggling. Not a true socialist state, doesn’t tax to share, but shares nations oil ,profits with citizens thru low priced goods and services.
Really, what is Obama???
