btw, unlike me, who answered directly your questions about crime in Venezuela and why socialism hasn't "failed", you've completely ignored my question.
Chavez hasn't done enough to combat crime how does that discredit the idea of democratic ownership of industry (socialism, which is not complete in Venezuela)?
When Mexico was the crime capital of the Americas, did you decry capitalism as a failed system? as Haiti lay in desperate poverty do you denounce the free market?

what exactly does Mao and central economic planning in a peasant society have to do with democratic ownership of the means of production and distribution which is what Venezuela is building? If you say they're the same, show me where in China you have democratically controlled factories, where in Beijing are there free trade unions? where in Mao's China was there democracy in industry? answer is; nowhere
Maoist China has nothing to do with the ideas of the Bolivarian Revolution

@SocialistaTribalista Under communist rule 65 million chinese starve to death. Do to the inefficiency of collectivised farming

Chavez hasn't done enough to combat crime from spilling over from Colombia, true, how does that discredit the idea of democratic ownership of industry (socialism) which is still being built in Venezuela, how do the two contradict?
When Mexico was the crime capital of the Americas, did you decry capitalism as a failed system? as Haiti lay in desperate poverty do you denounce the free market?

@simontimon2 Largely because inept officials in the state and local level have not implemented changes, because the drug trade has spread from Colombia to Venezuela despite massive victories in Venezuela against drug exporting, and because Chavez' government and the PSUV has concentrated enough attention to the issue.
How does that discredit socialism? the infant mortality rate in Angola is massive, does that discredit capitalism?

@SocialistaTribalista If socialism works then how come Venezuelan has the worlds highest murder rate.
Ever since Hugo Chavez took power the murder rate has tripled.

@NeroroPuj whats wrong with having a left wing government? Lula is socialist, and Brazil is a free country not all left wings are evil you know... as a matter of fact Brazil has progressed thanks to Lula.... and there are right wing parties is just that more people in Brazil votes for the left (with freedom to vote for right)...
95 percent14 of the Venezuelan media is in opposition to Chávez, on a daily basis produce vitriolic 'news pieces' and editorials against the government. The private media includes Venevision, RCTV, Globovision, Televen and CMT which control at least 90% of the TV market, with smaller private stations controlling another 5%.In addition all of the 118 newspaper companies, both regional and national, are held in private hands, as are 99% of radio stations
Press freedom is alive and well.
