El Aissami proposes economic debate "on the path of socialism"
translated from Spanish
Vice President Tareck El Aissami called a great national economic debate, but one that takes the path of socialism, which he described as a model that gives "the greatest amount of happiness to the people".
"Taking the phrase of President Maduro, after the victory of May 20 we are determined to place the national economy as the center of the political debate, the agenda of government, to overcome adversity, to start a new era, a change of post-modernist, post-petroleum era, and open the horizon to a diversified economy, are great challenges that we have proposed today, "he said during a meeting of the Presidential Economic Advisory Commission.
He referred to "the economic model that has been born of the luminous mint of our commander Hugo Chávez, the Bolivarian socialism, which is nothing else than the greatest sum of social happiness to our people".
"We do not have dogmas or recipes, we are open to frank debate, but ratifying the path of socialism as a model to develop," he said.

So, Chavismo is open to "new ideas", providing they are Bolivarian Socialist ideas. Because CLEARLY the current Bolivarian Socialist ideas aren't working, and new Bolivarian ideas should be brought in to think up new ways to screw up an entire nation even more. 'Cuz 18 years isn't enough time to figure it out.
Maybe they need another fake election to elect more Socialists? OH WAIT! The DO want new elections this fall! You think that with the epic failures with ZERO opposition, they would want to have non-Socialists win so they would have someone to blame?

(6,288 posts)1. Spot on. When wrecking-ball-Trump finishes stripping Human, Civil &
Constitutional protections throughout America sans worshiping the 'chosen' religion as law & arming ourselves with stockpiles of military grade weapons, and basics like food, travel & healthcare, have become a foregone luxery..well yes, I guess the meagerness of Socialism will look like a good deal.
Such a happy place to end up.
*Sarcasm..sort of
To Hell with Democracy, Socialism is a utopian fantasy as some have tried to market it.
And anymore, media is one big Infomercial.
When you no longer have a right to speak against the dictator in charge, you control nothing, you have no dreams nor aspiring future.
