I hate this crap. Hate it. It makes me angry.
It isn’t as if this could not have been foreseen. Real life examples exist. Books have been written. A turnip can figure this stuff out.
Socialism. is a perpetual motion machine sold over and over again by snake oil salesmen.
And like Charlie Brown trying to kick the football Lucy puts down, humankind keeps trying to kick that ball.
It is all so needless. Needless. It is so discouraging and depressing.
“I hate this crap. Hate it. It makes me angry.”

It worked just great when oil prices were higher and everybody in Venezuela could cruise on the exported resources of Venezuela.
That’s what’s also happening in Norway, but they are a little more happily situated. They don’t need prices to be as high as what Venezuela needed in order to be viable.
Venezuela needs to believe in some revolutionary ideas now. It has to go capitalist and know how to profitably work, if it is to ascend out of its pitiful situation. But without doing so as a whole, attempts at capitalism will simply be squelched.
