socialism Destroys Another Country

[Edgetho]

Fail rate -- 100% and counting. And to think some of our resident geniuses are pushing this style of government...... Incredible.

Every time, every single time, socialism is tried it fails. Spectacularly.

Every Freedom-Loving American predicted this the minute that scumbag 'Ugo took over (may he roast in hell). And now?

Now look at what they've done.

Pretty words can only do so much. And you eventually run out of other people's money

Venezuela Descends Into Madness, Rioting And Hysteria

But …Socialism….

Via Daily Beast:

“I want to get out of here. I want to leave this country as soon as possible and never come back.”

The text from my friend Luis surprised me. A lawyer by training, he got his masters in urban planning from an elite Manhattan university, and had returned to Venezuela full of hope. He was hired by a local NGO working on poverty abatement issues. But now, he’s fed up.

“Nothing works. There are lines to buy everything. Prices have gone through the roof. You can’t go out at night for fear of getting shot. If you want to get married, finding a place to live is impossible. The country has become unlivable.”

Luis’s story is a depressingly common one on the streets of Venezuela’s major urban centers. The nation’s young people are tired of enduring one of the world’s highest inflation rates, highest murder rates, scarcity of basic staples like toilet paper, and the near certainty that things are going to get worse before they get better. A few days ago, the Associated Press reported on Venezuelans camping on the sidewalk to get information about emigrating to Ireland.

The US, without middle class bail-outs, would have fared better?
And the bail-out have rewarded the bailed-out and not the bailers.

Obama is said to admire Chavez and his Venezuela...seems WE are on the same course if the policies of this government aren't stopped.

The nice thing about socialism in the US is that we can wait in line on line. Our healthcare will meet us where we are.

Ad when we run out of toilet paper, just use a copy of the Constitution.

Hittin' the pipe kinda early, aren't you?

Edge I gotta tell ya, you are by far the funniest anarchist I know. Don't back up daddy and keep the hits coming.

I see your memory is good for a little less than 5 years.

It's tough in a Pub World Depression. The USA is doing better than just about anywhere else, certainly better than an ex US dominated oligarchy. At least poverty was cut by 2/3, illiteracy halved, and a much better housing and nutrition situation.

OP- hysteria mainly in the thread title...The Kochs are probably paying the rioters...

 

[francoHFW]

Strange the way no one is reporting this...hater dupes.

 

[CrusaderFrank]

That's EXACTLY why they call themselves "Progressives" and not Socialists

What the hell is a "middle class bailout?" Any country that declines adopting socialist boondoggles would fair better.

Edge is not even close to being an anarchist. I should know because I am one.

It will be easy to create a socialist state in Amerika but they'll have to hit the reset button first, destroy the dollar, the economy by defaulting the debt and then socialize the victims when they are at their most vulnerable. Cloward and Piven I believe.

The source of the bail-out was targeted from middle class tax payers.
I guess I actually had to explicitly point that out.

If Obie had a country, it would look like Venezuela.

I still have no idea what the hell you're talking about. Please identify explicitly the legislation you are calling a "middle class bailout."

The bailouts were targeted at state bureaucrat unions like NEA and AFSCME. They're parasites, not taxpayers.

Funny thread.

But see how quick it got off the topic of the original post....That Socialism sucks everywhere with metronomic regularity; that is, all the time.

What about that?
