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.

Laugh, laugh…Obumma invading the country ruined by a Socialist pal? You’ve got to be kidding! We’d inherit millions more for our welfare and free stuff programs and the Dems would gain millions more “voters”.
That’s the lie. They get you to believe that its all about “you” And then when it’s all said and done…..they have ever it all and you have nothing. It’s history. It’s fact. And the arrogance in the words spoken by turdy kennedy says it all. When he was asked why it never worked anywhere else on the planet his reply was this, and I quote,
“Because (we) weren’t running it”
Oh really…..I think miss kopekne may differ in her opinion.
What a joke, why would we invade a country? They are doing what Obama wants to do to us.
How ridiculous!!
One thing I always find with socialists is that they build everything on lies.
The best economy in the modern world.. Was Hong Kong under British control.
