  2. No self-righteous SJW's and bleeding heart leftists.

  3.  @alexandermutune6131  But it still wouldn't be a sustainable way of running a country. The Middle East is dependent on US military protection and foreign migrant labor as the locals are too spoiled to work.

  4. In the US, it's only a problem in the Northeast and West Coast.

  5. <I heard that was not paid off until around 2015. > It was paid off in 1947.

  6. Maybe it's because even you don't believe that yourself as you enjoy the comforts of modern society too much to consider giving it up.

  7. Where Justin Trudeau is trying to do the same.

  8. Would that also apply to Kamala Harris? She's an anchor baby.

  9.  @gringologie9302  Only because France pays their bills.

  10.  @victorcano1289  Jamaica is another country that got destroyed by socialism courtesy of Michael Manley.

  11.  @victorcano1289  Jamaica = a country that got destroyed by socialist politicians.

  12. That's their social safety net.

  13.  @dondressel4802  They didn't ignore all the other aspects of the economy. They consciously destroyed them en route to making oil their only valuable export with price controls and property seizures.

  14. Pretty much.

  15. But Hawaii is much better off.

  16. Fighting corruption just means getting rid of political enemies, rivals and liabilities.

  17. Black people are already there.

  18.  @SK-yb7bx  Well, it is. Better unaffordable than unavailable even if you could afford to pay the higher price.
    1
  19.  @poncedeoly469  No. Socialism killed the economy. The sanctions are of little consequence.
    1
  20. And left-wing politicians that promised her "free" stuff.

  21. By bankrupting the private sector responsible for most of the revenue generated to fund his policies which is buying votes from the poor.

  22.  @ra2136  After all, don't socialist claim to be self-sufficient?
    1
  23.  @marmuaythai1512  LOL. If so, then why did you overwhelmingly vote to remain a French territory? <All the gold they have is from French Guiana.> With French money, infrastructure and know-how used to extract said resources. <We could survive by we-self.> Maybe, but you won't come anywhere near France's productivity and efficiency level.

  24. @ EXEXCEER So they should all be at the government's mercy?
    1
  25.  @ggonterriquez213  No it's not.

  26. No. The only terrorist here is the Cuban government. Russia, Venezuela and others stopped doing business with Cuba because they can no longer afford to keep supporting the regime for free.
    1
  27.  @HC-wo2tz  That's because you happen to be an (illegal) immigrant.
    1
  28. To corrupt bureaucrats.

  29. Because that didn't stop Cuba from chugging along thanks to Soviet and Venezuelan aid. Interesting how that loss did far more damage than the sanctions.

  30. Don't hold your breath.

  31. Yet few of them are thriving. And Venezuela is functionally socialist.

  32.  @minimaxmiaandme.4971  Same difference be it communist Cuba or socialist Venezuela.
    1
  33.  @TheSterlingArcher16  Pretty much.
    1
  34.  @moiseshuerta3984  But they're dependent on White-majority France for their economic survival.
    1
  35.  @orangecobraEU  Only Western and Central Africa are majority French. Eastern and Southern Africa is majority English.

  36. Socialism will not work for French Guiana just like it didn't work for Guyana.
    1
  37.  @leonardodasilveiradesouza7757  But French Guiana itself isn't much to write home about living conditions-wise despite all the French and EU subsidies.
    1
  38. Because the lower class don't work in or run the tourism industry? Why should any money reach them?
    1
  39. BS! <Many more people in Latin America and the world understand that Venezuela wouldn't be in the situation they are now if it wasn't for the U.S blockade.> Um. Venezuela was already in that situation in 2014-15 and there was no US blockade yet.

  40.  @samc269  LOL

  41. Oh really? The same African leaders that had no problem selling their own people out for trinkets in the Slave Trade?
    1
  42.  @machsimillian14  Yes it does.
    1
  43.  @KeithHinch  No. It's the Venezuelan government whose boot is on the throat of the economy. Get rid of the command economy and watch Venezuela thrive like old times. <Lift the sanctions and the country would boom again.> Like in 2014, 15 and 16?
    1
  44. Puerto Rico crumbled due to far-left politics.
    1
  45.  @jarednovel  But Mugabe and Dos Santos didn't need any Western help to rig elections and stay in power.

  46. That came well after Venezuela's 21 century socialism ran its course and went bankrupt.
    1
  47.  @Indiansareallpajeets  No. Venezuela made this.
    1
  48. No. Yugoslavia collapsed after Tito died and there was no one around to keep the ethnic groups in line. By the way, US democracy propped up that regime.

  49.  @adzappin_2567  Cuba was a spoil of the US's successful war against Spain but along with the Philippines was let go.

  50. Collective = the ruling class.
