Hungry For Socialism
The right is unanimous, the ever worsening disaster in Venezuela is proof that socialism is really, really bad.
Well, socialism is really, really bad.
But Venezuela doesn't prove it.
What they have in The Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela is not socialism but capitalism, managed very, very badly by admirers of Castro who hate capitalism on principle and are even more irresponsible, short-sighted, and stupid in their economic interventions in the market than Bernie Sanders or his fans would be, given the chance.
Or maybe not.
Anyway, progressives appreciate the value of capitalism and manage it for the public good.
Radical nitwits who call themselves "socialists" but would never dream of actually adopting socialism in their own countries loathe capitalism and treat it like a pinata.
You know what happens to a pinata after you whack it a few times?
All the goodies fall out . . . and then it's empty.
