And it seems that you are idealising a philosophy not even wanted in its original country. So fixed on your seat that you can’t imagine someone, let’s say a Cuban or a Venezuelan, dissing it.

Oh, and just to annoy you, Trump did more for both countries than Biden did.

No… Socialism is the very political and social movement in which, by taking down the very pillars of this working society without true understanding, damns it completely.

Independently on who does it.

Convenient…

May I remind you? https://fee.org/articles/how-price-control-leads-to-socialism/&hl=es&sl=en&tl=es&client=srp

It is… Unless you want to raise the “That is not the real Socialism” commentary.

Also, that is how it started in Cuba, Venezuela, Bolivia, and Argentina with Kirchner.

Partially wrong. Most of what happened in Perú had been the prelude in many other countries like Venezuela and Cuba.

A leader who either took the power by force (Velazco) or by using the system, and then ruining the country for the rest (Garcia Perez). With many policies focusing on the "“wellbeing” of the people, which (sadly) backfired terribly.

Velazco is the first example, with the nationalization of many businesses; as well as the alliances with the USSR, for the acquisition of weaponry. He tried to do the “best” for the Andean people, yet many of his reforms (the most notorious being “La Reforma Agraria”) only weakened the productive capabilities of many farmlands. Only to be left forgotten, and squandered. La Piturrina in Ica being the perfect example of such.

Fortunately, Moralez Bermudez helped with the transition back to democracy.

Alan Garcia implemented many socialist policies, as already mentioned. He tried to control the prices, unaware of how it impacted on the economy of the average Peruvian. With most investments escaping the country, the Into (the currency of that time) devaluated to the point that a million of it were needed to buy one dollar.

And something I must admit I forgot to write is how we were affected.

The Constant devaluation of the currency made it difficult for the average person to buy the groceries, also diminished for only estate backed businesses operated then. A can of milk could cost almost 2 billion intis (more or less 20 dollars). Imagine feeding a kid during that time…

And thanks to the insecurity of the terrorists, we suffered constant blackouts. Imagine doing your homework by the lights of the candles… Many of my generation need glasses thanks to that.

And lastly, you would be lucky if you were alive the next day… For any second a car could explode nearby.

This is what many Peruvians, and many South Americans will warn you.

More like the answers to my comments.

First of, thanks for the opportunity of a proper conversation. Second, a quick rant:

Many countries here in South America lived through some form of socialism. So, for us Peruvians, we live what I am warning through the decade of the 80s.

With many public services collapsed, and a severe hyperinflation.

The presidents of that time, first Fernando Belaúnde Terry (who focused on housing, but not on security which lead to the formation of Sendero Luminoso) and the Alan Garcia ( whose strategy was similar to what AOC is doing right now, while enacting most socialist programs like price control, and healthcare (in reality, an oversaturation of the dangerously lackluster service (further context: it was common to die from diarrhea here))), had a socialist government which worsened the situation until the next government of Alberto Fujimori.

Tell me what happened during the Biden Administration? Why withhold all the good/plans until she (or Harris) enter the White House?

Most of them, privatised.

And tell the “illegal” part to “El Tren de Aragua”.

I am Latino. And there are many Latinos who come illegally, and worse, to ruin their environment… Like in Perrysburg, Ohio.

Try making a line to buy only one carton of milk (we buy cans). And every time, it increases the price by the minute.

All while someone blew a car anytime. That is what O have lived.

Sure… I am a bot.

Repeating like a good sheep what is written in Reddit.

I know many of you will dismiss this as the ramblings of a Third-worlder… Yet, as someone who saw and suffered under the socialists, I can identify a populist demagogue the moment I see and hear/read one.

Her ambition is the seat and to perpetuate herself in the power, nothing unlike Cristina de Kirchner, or Hugo Chávez, or Maduro.

And, unless you do something about the illegals, her “ambition” is just a bait.

Almost two decades ago, I saw a pig eat a pig…

(A fat friend of mine eating some pork. It was “cannibalism”.)

Mummies’ become mommies…

You are a big girl, use proper words.

Thank you… I am adapting to this new app!

Being an artificer is always to be underestimated. We are seen by the Barbarians and warriors as fools playing with delicate baubles and trinkets… Lacking the physical might and prowess to carve our names in history through deeds.

While the arcane users watch us with either pity or contempt. Considering us beneath them, for not using the Empyrean directly. Using to power what they call our toys.

So, many would believe that the University metropolis of Ferroburg would lack anything like the Steldorf Coliseum… A place in which the artificers duel each other, either individually or in teams, far from the clinks and clanks of our craft.

A place to demonstrate that we too are warriors, scholars and explorers of the very Æther of the Empyrean. That our might combines the best of both worlds, that both our muscles and brain can make them bend a knee, if they are not careful.

But there is another name for the Coliseum… One that separates us from the mere brutality of other Gladiatorial arenas…

The Clockwork Lane.

We might want to demonstrate our prowess and pluck, but by the end of the day, we are craftsmen… And very proud of it. Including one single rule for our encounters…

The Gladiators may bring any clockwork with them, as long as they invented it and had at least five witnesses of said claim.

Many tend to bring equipment, like the Coil gauntlets of Hermes Faust. A set of gauntlets which managed to charge with kinetic energy the coils to unleash a devastating punch. Other bring small Puppets, each one of them more advanced than the previous model.

Julius Petto is infamous for his last puppet, named Carlo. Equipped with hidden blades and a conceptual Collapsible Spring shield, the small automaton was the best ally for his creator, and the worst enemy for his opponents.

There were some more eccentric examples, like the Copter pack, by Amelia Wright… The blasted contraption let her attack to the nigh indefensible head of her opponents.

To go to the Clockwork Lane is to compete against the rest, while also showing potential employers your worth either in the development of equipment, or as an adventurer for any Exploration enterprise.

Now, it is my turn…

I would ask you to wish me luck. But I won’t… My creation will dominate this duel!
