Welcome!
I’m Bub Kuns and today we’re talking about socialism.
Socialism promises “equal prosperity for all,” but, historically, socialist revolutions have led to political and religious oppression and POVERTY.
Take Venezuela, for example. Venezuela had a thriving economy in the 1970s, but socialist policies under dictators Hugo Chavez and Nicolas Maduro — such as the government takeover of businesses and redistribution of wealth — have led to widespread impoverishment despite the country’s abundant natural resources.
Historian Lee Edwards said, “Venezuela’s economic catastrophe “dwarfs” any in U.S., European, or Latin American history. Ninety percent of Venezuelans live in poverty. Once Venezuela had the world’s largest proven oil reserves; today, its citizens need a wheelbarrow of bolivars to buy a loaf of bread.”
As Christian columnist Cal Thomas wrote, “Socialism’s promise of equality is mutually shared poverty.”
And what is another problem with socialism?— We’ll discuss them another time.
