Many news articles about the Chinese people very unhappy. Venezuela same thing.
I guess you mean what we are being told here. You will own nothing and be happy.
I for one will stick with Capitalism over Socialism, any day of the week. After actually having visited many socialist countries over the years, socialist countries are pretty depressing.
Not to mention, in socialist countries, the 1% ruling class lives in splendor, while the 99% live in squalor. No thanks! I’d rather live & die a poor free man.

Instead of picking the WORST of socialistic countries which have a multitude of problems that can't be solved by ANY type of government. Instead, look to Sweden and Finland for the benefits of socialism. The problem is that in the US, the word socialism has taken on such a negative meaning. It becomes connected with communism, which then equates to enemies that the US has fought wars with.
