No we just think that the government should actually punish corporations and that people that can't support themselves should be helped the government.

Why do you want to punish corporations?

Venezuela does not, has not, and will never have income equality, and I don't know where the guy making that video got that insanely idiotic idea from.

True income equality is dangerous, yes. The motives for certain kinds of work over others becomes lost, and market demand becomes meaningless as any surplus in profit simply gets distributed to everyone else. However, extreme income inequality is also dangerous, as it spurs a two-tiered citizen hierarchy in which it becomes impossible to move to the higher class (Mexico, modern Russia, increasingly the USA, etc).

Nearly every crime can be traced to income inequality. There needs to be a moderate influence of government in the market to prevent businesses from becoming too large and destroying all competition.

Let's have a single product economy (corn?) and then sabotage the infrastructure required to produce it and then make it illegal to outsource the ability to produce it.

Oh wait, you guys DID do that

Man that was painful to watch.

In any case, modern liberals aren't really liberals, since they are in favor of income equality which doesn't promote freedom, it actually goes against it.

True income equality is dangerous.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_distribution_of_wealth
Higher Gini coefficients signify greater inequality in wealth distribution, with 1 being complete inequality and 0 being complete equality.

United States | Gini : 0.801
Venezuela | Gini : 0.712
United Kingdom l Gini : 0.697
Japan | Gini : 0.547


This tells me that Venezuela is more equal and that greater equality makes a more sensible country.
