“If socialism is so great, why have 50 thousand Venezualians breached the U.S. border in Sept. alone (according to CBP) to get to the land of the free and home of the brave.”
They are socialist/marxist “missionaries” who want to spread the good news. /s
A few might be but the overwhelming majority are fleeing the communists. Every communist takeover eventually results in refugees. Every single one.
That is why communist governments, if they are called on it and embarrassed enough, often attempt to prevent escapes by force, as the Russian communists did in the days of the USSR by going to extremes of taking over other counties and installing hundreds of miles of razor wire, concrete, watch towers, land mines, and shooting their own citizens and imprisoning people for attempted escapes... as Cuba does by maintaining a fleet of boats and aircraft to kill escapees; as North Korea does to its extremes, as the Vietnamese did, and Cambodia, and Burma/Myanmar, and China...
So to think masses of Venezuelans and Nicaraguans are not fleeing communism is to deceive yourself.
