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.

There is no truth and no action from this retarded website
Knowing our president… we’ll snatch defeat from the jaws of victory by giving the Venezuelan government a few billion so they can stay in business
Propaganda at its best.
Hahahahaha! “Marshall” law! Cracks me up.
All this is happening to them because their economy was based on oil sales! Usa and Saudi Arabia driving down the price is what caused this chaos. Its true that socialism is also a factor, due to the fact the government could pay the people because of the loss of oil revenue. Main thing to take away was that other governments started the events that are taking place.
They may or may not believe it, but those who know the difference between capitalism and communism are probably hoping for it.
A communist multinational force will take over
ROFL, if we only kept buying oil at inflated prices their economy and corrupt government would be fine. ..:)
We are the next brainwashed fools!
Our possible future
…quickly turns into communism.
