Does anyone have an article about why mocking socialism in Venezuela is stupid and how Hugo Chavez helped his country

they didn't implement democratic central planning or even market socialism. They even fail as keynesians. Venezuela is close to Trotsky's wet dream how he imagined failure of all capitalist welfare states.

oh, you mean the policies are bad because they aren't communist.
i thought you meant the policies were bad for the people.
you are of course entitled to your definition of "bad".

fug of, Cenk

did you just respond without reading or wtf is wrong with you?
are you a robot?
all the world is suffering under the endgame-meme-banking-crisis but poverty in venezuela is decreasing and you call it a failure?
can you at least be more specific?

s/meme/memo/

Just Fuck off Reddit. It's not even a low tier socdem country like Bolivia or a well managed mixed economy their policy is retarded populism with an end result that the country with the largest oil reserves in the world has a bigger crime and poverty problem than Colombia even Gulf Arab states and Iran have vastlt superior macro economic planning and management than that shithole and those people believe in medieval vodoo Magic isis shit it doesn't even have the Muh imperialism excuse that Cuba has for being a failed state

now you're just full-scale shitposting. the only thing i said was bloomberg.com/news/articles/2013-03-07/venezuelans-quality-of-life-improved-in-un-index-under-chavez and youtube.com/watch?v=xhMJ3wvYip4

Oil prices rise then they fall. None of the other oil producing states are on the brink of economic collapse. Like I don't here about imminent revolt and shortages of basic consumer goods in fucking Turkmensitan and Nigeria

why are you talking about oil prices now? are you a fucking robot?

Because that's what makes up most of their budget you retard. Chavez is not responsible for raising the price of barrel to 130 dollars before 2015 It's Osama Bin Laden George Bush and Oil speculators who are mostly responsible

I must say that I admire your autism, we don't get many visits from Holla Forums like you.

no, dumbmonkey, but he is responsible for redistributing the wealth among the people in a way that actually decreases poverty on an impressive scale.

wow, petropopulism works guys!

yeah, if done correctly.
obviously it doesn't work in neoliberal or other shitstates like US, saudi-arabia, qatar, etc.

see bloomberg.com/news/articles/2013-03-07/venezuelans-quality-of-life-improved-in-un-index-under-chavez and youtube.com/watch?v=xhMJ3wvYip4

sweden also used their oil money for public progress until neolibs took over and turned it into a racist shithole full of angry poor losers like the rest of the west.

I ain't clicking that shit, nigga.

also

just go back, faggot

Fuck off.

Saudi Arabia is superior when it comes to otero populism and socialism as it is understood in America per Cenk Uygur's definition of the term even fucking Iran under global sanctions is superior

Venezuela has 'import goods' lmao petropopulism, countries like Norway used oil money to invest and build infrastructure.

it's just the top google result. i just keep posting that one because it triggers you so badly.

google.ca/amp/s/www.bloomberg.com/amp/news/articles/2017-01-11/goodbye-recession-hello-depression-venezuela-gdp-takes-10-hit

so did poverty increase in 2016 or did merely the GDP take a hit?

Oh look, the Human Development Index of Venezuela slightly increased since 2013:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_Human_Development_Index
en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_countries_by_Human_Development_Index&oldid=585455699

It increased a fuckton that year. Most people that earn minimum wage (most of the population. The minimum wage is currently around 150k BsF) have hundreds of thousands of bolivares in debt, and those who don't have credit cards or get help from family overseas to pay things end up here:

panampost.com/orlando-avendano/2016/09/13/study-over-15-percent-of-venezuelans-eat-from-the-trash/

honestly there is no defending the famine and mismanagement of resources in venezulea, remind them it's not communism and move on instead of replying to bait threads you autist

that photo doesn't really show them picking up food. could be fake news.

but alright, now all you need to do is show me another study done before chavez was in power that shows that back then less people were eating from the trash.

also remember the fake news about haitians fighting for food? charlie brooker had some brilliant scenes in one of his wipe shows.

oh and when you have the stats for pre-chavez poverty, also show me the web presence of More Consulting. they don't have a wiki page.

so does anyone have anything bad to say about venezuela's government or are we gonna stick with "everything is fine, fuck the neolib fake news liar press"?

if chavez isn't responsible for all that poverty we should probably consider to be more active in protesting the oligarchs' attempt at regime change.

please not another syria or "south american spring".

...

Back then nobody even thought about people eating from the trash, that's why there are no studies about it from the 90s.

because they had no (political) reason to look, most standard economic indicators of Venezuela were much worse before Chavez than they are now, except maybe inflation, watch Democratic Socialist's video on it.

What are you trying to say?
Is there a point where things are bad enough that nobody looks for food in the trash?

There are people eating from the garbage in third world countries all over the world, there were probably people eating from garbage in venezuela back in the 90s as economic data shows, it wasn't reported because venezuela didn't have a moustached president talking shit at the US and there was no narrative to run.

I guess that there really are no good tankie posters.

lol. you have to over simplify things THIS MUCH to make sense?

i think it gives an interesting insight into how opportunist those online reputation management shill corporations are, to come up with a neologism like "petropopulism".

that word doesn't even make sense but they believe it can be used to convey feelings to the masses.
