  • @Lukege15 -I actually lived in Venezuela most of my life. Chavez keeps the poor poor, just in slightly better conditions. He raises a new elite with obscenely expensive cars and houses, while most of the country stays poor.

    -The US have adopted "socialist"" programs in the past in order to keep the poor silenced. Just not as much as other countries. It's called populism

    -capitalism=slavery. venezuela is state and free market capitalist

    -Socialist libertarian= anarchist. Look it up.

  • @xplastilinaverdex when 1970 lol?

  • @xplastilinaverdex Chavez is transforming into that, its not you can make peaceful revolution have changes in one year Chavez inherited a broke government but you can make changes in short amount of time only by a violent revolution. Chavez takes it step by step you got to be patient he already got most of it setup towards that goal

  • @Lukege15 Also, sorry to break it to you, but the US was never made by the people and for the people, it is not and it isn't a democracy. The US shouldn't even exist just like Venezuela or any state. And as I said, Chavez only helps the poor in the same ways in which the US government has, they have only done it to keep them calm and complacent so their government doesn't get overthrown. They take everything from the poor and then give them back the crumbs so they stay happy.

  • @Lukege15 Fox news viewer? Why would I defend communism if I was a Fox news viewer? that makes no sense. I lived in Venezuela till very recently, and as I said, Chavez is a STATE CAPITALIS, who merely replaced the old elite for a new elite (or if they kissed his ass, kept the old elite and gave them a raise). The poor of Venezuela don't need Chavez to do things for them in exchange for their slavery. They can expropriate the wealth and rule themselves. I want anarchy like Chomsky does.

  • @gangster3591 Chavez is not a communist. He's a state capitalist. Chomsky is an anarcho-syndicalist

  • @21boxhead (btw, I lived in Venezuela till 5 years ago)

  • @21boxhead I have seen them. And I have seen how he has replaced the old elite for the new. Chavez is no communist. He is a state capitalist. I want a real state-less and class-less society like Chomsky does. The poor don't need Chavez to do them "favors", they dont need a father. They are perfectly capable of expropriating the wealth and handling it on their own. It's people not animals or machines
