  1. +Das Kinophile ENTP Bernie did praise Venezuelas system and wanted to implement same system in America. Also social democracy is same as socialism. Difference is that they want to achieve socialism through slow political process instead of revolution.

  2. +Arnold Layne Actually socialm requires other people's resources. That is why they say "seize the means of productions". They don't create anything, they steal. "Maduro run out of oil money, which was "their (or state's)" money in the first place, because it was nationalised. It wasn't "other people's money"." Who owned those oil fields in the first place? Before government decided to nationalize it.

  4. +Not Crazy "That's an incredibly stupid thing to say. " Not if you look at statictis. Which clearly point out that more regulated the country is the more it's economy is damaged. Economic freedom index. Go and check it out. There is reason why western countries flourish. That is because we have least regulations on the planet. "The 2008 financial crisis was all Bush's fault.

  5. Socialism is main subject precisely because we wish to avoid same disaster happening else were in the world. Thousands of people die very day on the planet. What makes you think that people dying in Venezuela makes it more important for others to talk about? We rather talk about things that lead to that moment, instead of how bad someone feels otherside of the planet. Pretty sure you don't talk everyday how some kid in somalia starves or becomes a child solider.
