I don't think venezuela is producing too many goods and services that capitalism didn't already invent. Yes, in capitalism how people get paid is decided by what the agents in the market accept as money, and in capitalism the people who get paid are the people who bring the most value to an economy. YouTube doesn't represent capitalism in the sense that in a true capitalism system, they wouldn't be able to censor a large demographic because there will be some competitor that that demographic can turn too. There are other alternatives to YouTube, just very few people know about them or use them because they are being brought to the mainstream. YouTube, as with all other monopolies, is a government sanctioned monopoly. YouTube is aloud to be as popular and as monopolized as it is because it is carrying out the agenda of the puppeteers that control our governments. Despite popular belief, there is little to no government involved with business in a true capitalist society. Try to proving me wrong. Put up or shut up. #facts.

this is an entire book written about how wrong that statement is
"I don't think venezuela is producing too many goods and services that capitalism didn't already invent."
that was already stupid on many levels.
first of all they are capitalist.
second of all, "anarchist capitalism is the only capitalism" is a complete failure of a statement. Capitalism can not be anarchist, private property can not exist without a state.
"Despite popular belief, there is little to no government involved with business in a true capitalist society. Try to proving me wrong. "
private property was crated (stolen) during the enclosure acts. Capitalism would not exist without government intervention lmao. Without a government every system turns anarchist, that is to say mutualist or socialist.
second of all, you can't pick some arbitrary point on a sliding scale of freedom and say that's the point when it becomes capitalist or not. If we introduce philosophical zombies, the entire argument falls apart. A system is based on marital conditions, not whether or not somebody decided that what they were doing that day was voluntary.
here is a nice book pointing out how capitalism literally can't help forming monopolies, and it goes into imperialism and how it is needed to sustain late stage capitalism. It includes many historical examples.

Sorry, but if you think venezuela is capitalist you've been living under a rock and are not worth my time debating. Clearly you are a troll that lives in his parents basement jerking off to whores on pornhub because you are too deranged to get that close to a real women, if you think venezuela is capitalist. It is clearly a communist regime, but if your pea brain can't think that far here is a shit ton of articles that refer to venezuela as a socialist regime, which is the first step to communism

Not to mention nicholas maduro and hugo chavez, are and were members of venezuela's socialist party.
Thanks for your time, you have proven yourself to not be worth mine.
socialism is where the workers collectively control the means of production. Venezuela is majority private ownership. If there is any private ownership it is not socialist.
just because a socialist leader was recently elected to lead a capitalist country doesn't instantly make it socialist lmao retard.
