The problem with getting the state into internet platform regulations is that each country abides different sets of rules and has different interests, so if a platform had to align with every country they might ditch some in the way

Most people have a price, despite their ideology

Cause they got excess money

Or 1% eastern Europe

Muh Russia collusion

Venezuela, how do you justify it?

Inb4 that wasn't real socialism <:Commie_ball:466404411535785995>

But how much of those are from people connected to the government?

And how many are independent?

Any way. Some ministers cousin that managed to begin something with "borrowed" money to not be returned

The thing is, can you say it's a private company when all income depends on the government?

Now. Imagine you need to buy x amount of merchandise from outside, and you have 100 Bs (local coin). If you are not related to the government you have to buy $ in the black market, where the price, let's say is 100 Bs per $. You can buy 1

If you have good party contacts you can buy $ from government at a special price!

So let's say 10 Bs per $

You will get 10 $

That you can sell to the regular market

For the real price

So the general state of companies goes down cause they can't do as well

"you are performing like shit" let's take all your work life and give it to the people

And it breaks down, cause they can't manage it

Here has always been corruption in Vzla, but it exploded since 2003 where the socialist government implemented the state control currency exchange

Im on mobile rn.

But you can Google "bolichicos"

Or see how much money Chavez' daughter has

It's not unique, but it's exponentially increased

In this case was the currency exchange

But that's enough, now you explain to me how Venezuela failed

If it wasn't socialism

Telesur answer

There's no such thing as US interference, in fact, most people there are begging for one

During the last 20 years oil has been peak high

So the income should've been high enough that even us interference wouldn't matter

Wait, that's my next point chill out

It is

Because with the mid 2000s prices it would've been enough to survive any criais

The thing is they can't even try, oil infrastructure is (at least) 20 y.o. With barely any maintenance

Because the oil company was statized around 2002

And they kicked practically all qualified workera

Workers*

And about stockpiling. The only ones caught stockpiling were government owned

The cherry on top of the cake is that gasoline is basically free.

And they are implementing a system where party members will still get it for free, and everyone else has to pay international price

There's no possible way to survive that way

Now extrapolate that to a whole country

Cause the same people are running the fkin country

OK, then why did it fail?

It wasn't US intervention, stockpiling or the drop of oil prices

I can tell you

Of course it wasn't only socialism

But socialism led to all the circumstances that made it fail

Cmon man

Statized corruption, destroying the private economy and people's earning capabilities

Dude

There's no economy

There's only 1 company "keeping" things up

Abd it barely does it

Is the only private one that has really survived

Then thing is, when you give to the "greater good" you have to take from someone

Eventually you will have no people to take from

So its evident why socialism doesn't work then?

In tired of repeating myself

Have a good day.

To wrap it up. Over-accomplishing people will lose their incentive, and so will happen to each layer pulling more than their own weigh. Eventually nobody will be able to carry themselves + people dragging them back.

If you think about it, Trump qualifies as a person of color. Since he's orange and not white... 🤔
