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.

Jonathan Neal, check out this farce of an article. “Information” disguised as truth when it’s nothing more than propoganda. Hilarious
Well you’re failing. Better hit the streets.
Obamas dream… Martial Law under his dictatorship…
you are a fucking fool. Name one example in history where too much true free market capitalism has failed. Just one… If you had half a brain, you would simply support capitalism, and fight against crony capitalism because if you think that crony capitalism is monstrous, then your asinine suggestion of a balance between socialism and capitalism would be the equivelant of the boogeyman hiding under your bed. Get your head out of your$#%&!@*and get an education.
you really are retarded… You do know we had public schools, fire and police departments, public roads, and all of the other b******t you idiotic socialists love to bring up before there was a federal income tax in this country, right?? Apparently not, because you support something which cannot exist. There can and never will be a balance between capitalism and socialism. A tiny bit of socialism can only lead to more socialism, which will eventually lead to communism and full on fascism. But you dont understand that because you obviously have never studied history. We are already at borderline communism and you are dumb enough to buy into the b******t of a socialist scumbag like sanders. That requires a special kind of stupid.. Actually its the worst kind of stupid- lazy, cowardly stupid.. Somebody needs to revoke your voter registration card because you are obviously not capable of making an informed decision.
Bet they feel the bern
Sure it does. The problem with this country is its reliance on oil money. The crash of oil prices doomed it. Not socialism.
There’s no corruption in capitalism? Look at Russia and it’s 50% unemployment rate and rampant drug problem. Communism cut exist without socialism but that isn’t true the other way around. There are plenty of eastern European countries that have a democracy just like ours with allot of socialistic ideas. But believe what ever you want.
Let’s keep things exactly the way they are. We are doing sooooo well.
