        Yes, that's the journey. However when they arrive it is even Worse. They sleep on the street here. Unfortunately, we have many homeless already and with the migration that number just increases 😿💔 Good luck Venezuela.

        The lead is rather exagerated. No Venezuelan has reached Argentina or Chile by foot...

        Exaggerated you say. You have. O idea what Venezuelans are enduring, What this documentary leaves out is that socialism is the cause of the destruction of the country.

        I did not say that specifically about Venezuela, but about socialism as a concept. I know that in Venezuela has gone very bad.

        Socialism is a criminal ideology. I hope to see us Venezuelans, as victims of socialism, do a campaign against it just like the Jews did against Nazism.

        To be clear, I’m not a socialist; however I think socialism has been greatly misunderstood, largely due to dictators taking the policies too far in an attempt to maintain their iron grip on power. What has happened in many countries was not about socialism, but about power.

        Socialism’s first rule is to dictate how a MARKET should work, establish price ceilings, limit demand,etc. This is why is such a failure. We can’t go againt the laws of nature, ie MARKET ECONOMY.

        Naw. Northern Europe does socialism ok. Its corruption. Latin America is rife with it.

        North European countries have market economies, that they have higher tax brackets for social purposes doesn’t make them socialists. In fact, they need a healthy markets ie CAPITALISM in order to receive revenues.

        Technically you are correct. But, today we seem to use the term "socialism" very loosely. Note how Bernie Sanders is a socialist even though he never mentioned doing away with private ownership or the market economy.

        One nutcase of a dictator president displaces hundred's of thousands and the foolish world looks on. He should be shot dead or definitely picked up like a mad dog with a leash and tried for crimes against humanity. Shame on the world to watch this

        Socialism didn’t do this. A stubborn, unmovable dictator did.
