        Venezuela doesn't work because it is a dictatorship with one major industry. Democratic socialist countries with diversified economies work quite well around the world.

        The only work they do is taking money they didn’t earn and giving it to people that didn’t earn it, while taking a healthy cut for themselves.

        You'll go down in history as the Governor who thought about anything but his actual job: the Venezuelan economy, the 3 or 4 people every decade who commit voter fraud, Russian Jade Helm conspiracy theories... #abbottisaRussianstooge

        No one tell Abbot that the police and firefighters are socialist institutions or he will get rid of them.

        There’s a huge difference between a socialist country and a capitalist country with socialist programs. You’re veering off into stupidity, bud.

        The socialists in Venezuela have, as Margaret Thatcher said, “run out of other people’s money.”

        Sweden isn’t socialist although operates as a welfare state. And Canada is a democracy with gov administered healthcare. There isn’t Socialism in either country—which is a figment of most people imaginations— https://twitter.com/williamelewis46/status/1050032049250361344?s=21 …

        His point is there’s a political party who seeks to establish a socialist society here and the results are predictable.

        So you fear that the Democrats want a Venezuelan government style in Texas. You know that is patently false and preposterous. Not worth commenting on.

        And yet you commented? And you didn’t refute that Democrats are trending toward socialism? The truth is, Venezuela wasn’t ruined in a day.
