How many times do we have to learn that socialism doesn't work, that, as Margaret Thatcher said, at some point you run out of "other people's money," that sooner or later all the teary idealism, the stirring strains of The Internationale, devolve into gulags and death squads? Wasn't the Soviet Union enough, Communist China, Cambodia, North Korea, Cuba, etc....?
Now those death squads appear to have surfaced in Venezuela, the wealthiest country in Latin America before Hugo Chavez brought his brand of socialism to the then oil-rich nation.
Venezuelan security forces have carried out hundreds of arbitrary killings under the guise of fighting crime, the UN's human rights body says.
In a report, it cites "shocking" accounts of young men being killed during operations, often in poor districts, over the past three years.
The UN's human rights chief said no-one was being held to account, suggesting the rule of law was "virtually absent".
Caracas is now the world's most violent city. The people are starving and without medicine as inflation goes through the proverbial roof. The rich flee to Miami and the poor to Colombia. Venezuela is the shell of itself, a disaster area, currently close to the saddest story on Earth, given where it started.

Never go full retard.
Carter summed it up best. He was going to ‘tax the rich’ to pay for everything. When pressed to define who is rich, he came up with ‘anyone making $16 K or more...’
Until the first cash is waved in her face in DC.
If every member of today’s RAT party were to leave the USA for good, it would have NO NEGATIVE EFFECT on the USA and would only benefit the REAL AMERICAN CITIZENS.
Get out RATS!
Give them a break. They only want to redistribute our money, not theirs.
The fight in the demoncrat party is the old line Fabian socialists vs the revolutionary socialists.
In general the Fabians have been more effective in destroying society because they have been subtle and strategic over hundreds of years. The Bolsheviks were successful really on in Russia. They obtained a victory even though they were a minority. Then they imposed their terror.

DNR with the dems this year and the next 6!
So, push your seat back, sit back and enjoy your favorite beverage, snack or popcorn as the Deep State is melting down each day.
Take time to enjoy your Schadenfreude as the Deep State rats and their trolls and rats panic. Enjoy your flight to reality with your pilot President Trump and his co pilot Vice President Pence. Savor each hour and each day as the Deep State Rats implode.
Don’t listen to the Never Trump Trolls saying, “ Nothing will happen!” That is what they are paid to say and post. They are panicking as that income will be going away!
Ocasio-Cortez. Born Bronx, former bartender, no mention of education, if any. Parents, no mention, likely illegal aliens? Interesting that nowhere is there any information about her and who she surrounds herself with. Careful silence by the media. Reminds me of Obama.
“The Democrats Go Full Venezuela”
I don’t understand why the Repubs havent been comparing the RAT policies with Venezuela and the resultant implosion of that country.
Just for the record Ocasio-Cortez is Bronx born, of Puerto Rican parents. Her mother was born on the island, her father in the Bronx. I don’t like her politics but waving the she’s an illegal banner would rebound to her benefit. She is actually a more generational citizen than most of the Italian and German kids I taught in Ridgewood Queens back in the 70s.
I hope she wins.
I might contribute. Majorities as far as the eye can see.
This is a combined map of all countries that declared themselves Socialist states under any definition at some point in their history, (color-coded) for the number of years they said they were Socialist:
dems are running on this:
make America weak again
put people out of work
make minorities dependent on government
“Trump said a mean word”
jobs are bad for this country
m*slims can do no wrong
the country has no borders, let everyone in
blacks are oppressed
chopping your dicque off means you are oppressed and you need special privileges
Cute, but dumb, which is expected from someone who is so young. Hopefully as she ages, she’ll wisen up a bit and realize the pitfalls associated with socialism.
Like all socialist politicians, that (blank) wants it here because she is ignorant, stupid (they are different), thinks she will end up in the ruling class, or a combination of those three.
Redistribute our money into their money. They’re doing a great job at it and they’re terrified Trump will put a stop to it.
She is the next obammy.
