Socialism preaching equality through subsidies to the poor by taking from those who have it, that is liberal utopia. And that works for a while until the money runs out. Then the stores run out of food and you only get a weeks worth of rice to feed your family, at an inflated price, if you get any food at all.. After that you have to go to the black market to buy food that the store doesn't have anymore, at a 200% markup in some cases.
People are starving and there is no one to help them out of the Socialist mess. Funny isn't it? I saw a news report on "How Venezuela’s socialist dream collapsed into a nightmare" on Public Television an hour ago. People in lines blocks long hoping for food from a store that had already run out. All the equality gained subsidizing food for the poor came to a screeching halt almost overnight. And this is the platform that bernie and hillary are running on. Isn't it great to have an actual preview you can grasp revealing the great the truth of Socialism?
Folks, do not kid yourselves. Socialism can only work when the government can steal money from those who have it. Then when the jobs are gone, and the income revenue disappears, you turn into Venezuela. Go on the Internet and look around a little bit concerning Venezuela's problems this very day if you want to see where America is headed.
Socialism is the platform hillary and bernie are running on this election. Consider this a "peek" ahead into the future of America if they get their way. Just remember, Socialism is only for the common man. The wealthy, the crooked politicians, and the rest at the top never see Socialism as they are isolated from its pitfalls. They need not starve, or watch their children starve when Socialism comes to its inevitable end, as it always does. They just live life normally. Remember folks, this is happening this very day under a Socialist regime.If nothing else, use the information as food for thought. At the least you will be able to recognize what is happening as it happens.

How Venezuela’s socialist dream collapsed into a nightmare

Venezuela is in the midst of a stunning social, political, and economic collapse. The country of 30 million people is facing dire food and medicine shortages, frequent power outages, serious political unrest, the world’s highest inflation rate, rampant violent crime, and one of the world’s highest murder rates. Earlier this month, Venezuela’s president, Nicolás Maduro, declared a state of emergency.
In short, Venezuela has become the world’s most visibly failing state.
It wasn’t supposed to go like this. Not so long ago, Venezuela’s socialist revolution attracted its share of fellow travelers first-world idealists hungry for the next earthly utopia. Those folks are thin on the ground these days.
Here, then, is the story of how a relatively wealthy, relatively sophisticated country suddenly imploded under the weight of its own terrible choices and why the worst may still be to come.
Chavismo’s disastrous policies created this nightmare
