Kimberly Clark was not the only one

No longer worth selling corn flakes...

this article on The Nation, from 2016, also references the private sector as the dominant force in the economy

You can't even trade it because the volume is nothing

> 526 companies

Venezuela has 4,000 companies

So if 526 companies are state-owned, then it can't possibly be a state-owned/public sector dominated economy. By your own reasoning.

@Thomas Watson Can I add you to the opt out role? It hides the channel

of course, nobody wants to trade in Petros

No

Just lemme see it

@The Big Oof

<:PeepoCool:526388665446957075>

526 companies out of 4,000 is a screaming minority.

Argument fails on its own merits

rofl no it isn't

I'm used to getting pinged anyway

526 State Owned Companies

for god sake

yes out of 4,000 in total

so, no, not a socialist economy

the State owns 4.000?

no
