Feel the Bern: Venezuela's Chaos Is the Logical End of Democrats' Vision for America

By Justin Haskins

President Nicolas Maduro has no tolerance for dissent. For months, he’s used brute force to silence his critics, and most recently, families of opposition leaders have alleged that Maduro’s political rivals have been seized and shipped off to an unknown location.  However, long before the current political turmoil, a number of economic crises created the civil unrest Venezuela now faces.

Venezuela wasn’t always this chaotic, and although absolutely none of the politicians in Washington, D.C. deserve to be put in the same camp as a tyrant like Maduro, it’s worth remembering that the very same political philosophies serving as the foundation of the Democratic Party are the philosophies that have utterly destroyed Venezuela: price fixing, centralized economic controls, a nationalized economy, and an emphasis on expanding the role of government in nearly every aspect of life..............More

My Take - The statement "absolutely none of the politicians in Washington, D.C. deserve to be put in the same camp as a tyrant like Maduro" is a logical fallacy.  In reality ,there's no Maduro in Washington because they can't be like Maduro.  However, that doesn't mean they wouldn't love to be like Maduro, and aren't working to become a Maduro.  Under the skin of every leftist is a Maduro just waiting to bust out.  Leftism is a philosophy of tyranny.  And we know that because that's always been the end result in any country where leftists took complete control.  That's history, and that history is incontestable. 

Why's that so hard to get?
