Philosopher, essayist, poet and novelist, George Santayana[1] once said “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it,” and as we watch the headlines coming out of Venezuela, we see proof of his assertion as we watch Socialism/Communism once again destroy a nation as their economic collapse brings “savage suffering,”[2] with food shortages[3] and electricity rationing[4] as they are “starved into submission.” (Story by Susan Duclos, republished from AllNewsPipeline.com.)
Venezuela’s opposition legislature has declared a “nutritional emergency,” proclaiming that the country simply does not have enough food to feed its population. The move comes after years of socialist rationing and shortages that forced millions to wait on lines lasting as long as six hours for a pint of milk, a bag of flour, or carton of cooking oil.
More disturbing for Americans is that we are following that same path as our nations young obviously haven’t been taught the past, condemning us to repeat it. According to a recent survey, 43 percent of Millennials (people under 30) have a very or somewhat favorable view of socialism,[5] despite history.
Socialism[6]: any of various economic and political theories advocating collective or governmental ownership and administration of the means of production and distribution of goods.
