what is your argument of Global Capitalism destroying other countries?
you repeated that like 4 times
you sound like Maduro with his national broadcasts
he always blames the USA for everything with his ridicolous "ECONOMIC WAR"
@Flat and yes English is not my first language but at least i talk it
@Flat yeah
Global capitalism - that is not only the Saudi-US oil war on Russia and Iran which artificially manipulated the global oil prices and ruined the Venezuelan oil-heavy economy, but also the sanctions imposed upon it by US, Canada and EU (among others) that disable normal international economic activity from being carried out - are almost single handedly responsible for the state of Venezuela today, and have been in place since early 2010s which was when the crisis began.
The Venezuelan Economical Crisis started when the Oil prices dropped
Chávez centered the economy depending it on the OIL
Literally the only product we were exporting was oil, and the rest was being Imported
If I had to fault Venezuelan socialists for something in this, it would be two things
1) not diversifying the economy quickly enough (would have required planning)
2) not seizing the means of production and liquidating the capitalist power structure fast enough (to facilitate 1)
they didn't diversify the means of production
and 2
yes they did seize some meanings of production
as i said they expropiated plenty of properties
farms, companies, airlines, etc
They didn't control the means of production to begin with. And this was the *number one problem* with their gradualist, reformist praxis. They should've transformed the economy much quicker. They should've gone for full autonomy approach, or autarkic economic policy for the duration of the coming crisis.
they did
they did it
They didn't
they really didn't
Most of the Properties are State owned
most of the economy remained in the hands of the capitalists
the Private Sector is Small
false
that is actually false
like, shockingly false
proof your argument
tell me if its false
then why many companies closed and left the country?
why there's few companies investing in Venezuela?
you have not seen it pertinent to prove anything to me (so far I'm the only one who has bothered with economic data); but yes, even the Fox News made a piece on this
https://www.foxnews.com/world/what-socialism-private-sector-still-dominates-venezuelan-economy-despite-chavez-crusade
that's not true
it is true
now its your turn to show something for your claim
That Article is from 2010
very well - show me fresh information
2010 was the definite year when Chávez had a lot of Profit
show me data
or something
