Venezuelan Exiles Warn College Students Against the Dangers of Socialism
“I definitely see America committing a lot of the same mistakes Venezuela committed.”
If anyone deserves to be listened to about the dangers of socialism, it is people who escaped life in Venezuela.

Meet the two Venezuelan exiles warning college students against socialism
When Jorge Galicia and Andrés Guilarte tell college students socialism is no utopia, they speak from experience.
The two young intellectuals were born and raised in Venezuela and over the last decade saw their country transformed into a place they barely recognize.
As exiles seeking asylum in America today, they’re telling any young person who will listen: the virus is socialism.
“No one else can know what happened in Venezuela but a Venezuelan, and we are experts on that,” said Guilarte, 25.
Galicia, 24, adds “I definitely see America committing a lot of the same mistakes Venezuela committed.”
Galicia and Guilarte are currently visiting college campuses nationwide warning young people against socialism, and told The College Fix in a joint telephone interview on Wednesday their message could not be coming at a more critical time.

According to Bernie and AOC, Venezuela is a Socialist utopia.
In 2011 Bernie said, “These days, the American dream is more apt to be realized in South America, in places such as Ecuador, Venezuela and Argentina, where incomes are actually more equal today than they are in the land of Horatio Alger. Who’s the banana republic now?”
It’s unfortunate that the leftist politicians don’t ever listen to the people who actually lived under Socialist rule. I hope the American people are still smart enough to choose freedom over Socialism.
I’m surprised they are allowed to speak at colleges. Hope they have plenty of security.
