More Evidence That Marxism Fails

Political Calculations: Economic Freedom's Big Movers

Click on the title or the link for some data that further demonstrates that what I rant about so very often, is true. I know some on the left think that I just rant for the hell of it, and that much of my ranting about socialism is nothing more than pure emotion. But pay close attention to the numbers of both Nicarugua and Venezuela.

The variables are as follows:

Nicaruagua has rejected Castro-style Marxism, an ideology that they once embraced after the Sandinistas overthrew Somoza.

Venezuela has recently embraced Castro and his style of socialism.

The results are there. Read them for yourself.


UPDATE (5:05PM 10-9-05)

Les at Living In The Surreal World has some thoughts about Marxism and how it relates to the War On Terror.

And here, he reposts a piece on Che Guevara, the Marxist killer that still enjoys a cult following among the cult of leftist thinking..

Both are worth reading.

But to the mental inversion cases that are usually found in front of blackboards this constitutes progress.

WAR IS PEACE!
FREEDOM IS SLAVERY!
WEALTH IS POVERTY!

And so on...
