This article comes from England, where I’m sure the author thinks they do socialism correctly.

Reading some quotes from the article, doesn't seem sugar coated at all. This sounds all too familiar as part of the U.S. Democrat playbook...for instance:

1 Backing quotas for hiring based on other than competence.

2 Exorbitant taxing for redistribution to favored groups.

3 Regulation imposed from above to constrain options and foster dependence on bureaucratic authority.

Excerpt from article:

Many Venezuelans have already left the country, including Francisco Flores. “Venezuela has taken good working companies, given them to the poor but not equipped them with the skills to run them so they go bankrupt,” he says.

“That’s just a recipe for destroying a country.”

The NHS therapist, who now lives in London, says the regime is based on a principle of keeping everyone “equal but poor”.

“This way, the state becomes a nanny and everyone loses the power to do anything because they are so dependent on it.”
