You doesn´t know nothing about this. I´m venezuelan. This is a real totalitarian socialism! and please, if you think that this is true, please come here and (try) to live at least a few months. Hunger, murder, crimen, drugs... censorship, and so on! how you can say that! you ignore many things.

Socialism is where the workers control the means of production.

Thank you for informing us about your experience from the inside. It's oil industry and welfare state is definetly socialism. The rest we can't know since we are not there. Please keep us posted and inform us of what you see. Stay safe and I'm sorry for your situation. Saludos!

Thank you for you attention. Right now, I´m decided to write about Venezuelan situation. I think is very positive to do it and let the world and Steemit community to know what happen here. Greetings, have a nice day!

The tyrannical regime is true. I am not denying that. However, the lack of trade with other countries (embargo) is real, too and it hurts a lot.

But is false, here is not an "embargo"... the regime does not pay to another countries and the investor have no guarantee of his money or property be safe. That´s the question: if you don´t pay, nobody want to trade with you, right? This is the situation her in Venezuela. The regime doesn´t pay and no country or international traders want to make deals in those conditions.

And the suffer and hurts in Venezuela is consequence of the regime, Chavez and Maduro. Not for the lack of business.
