That’s a fact.

Socialism has taken root to our South.

It’s very popular among the people.

Not PC: uneducated and poorly educated like the sound of it. Socialism does have a seductive ring if you see yourself in the bottom wrungs of the socio economic class system.

Latin American leader use the activities of the CIA after WW2 to stir up hatred of capitalism. It goes back even further for some. Augusto César Sandino’s hatred of the U.S. dates back to Taft/Roosevelt. It’s easy to use a company like United Fruit to brainwash people into believing capitalism is bad, therefore socialism is good.

"From each according to his ability, to each according to his need" sounds eminently fair, until you realize that some tyrannical bureaucrat gets to decide what you need and what can be taken from you.
