Venezuelans currently live in extreme poverty and homelessness, with their money losing its value every day, but it wasn’t always this way. Daniel Di Martino joins me to share his story of why he fled Venezuela and how the once fourth richest country in the world fell due to socialist policies.
With socialism on the rise through figures like Bernie Sanders and AOC, it’s important to examine the effects of generous policies that we may not immediately be aware of. Can we adopt a model like the highly praised Nordic countries? Could the U.S. fall into a state of despair and hunger through socialist ideas? What do we have to give up so that we can all live better lives?
