Communism / Marxism / Socialism do not help the poor, they use the poor.
If you want to help the poor, show them how to change their situation. Stay away from the cruelty of state sponsored wealth distribution.
Or you may end up with the kind of “yiechhhkkchh” going on in Venezuala.
From Yahoo News:
“National Guard soldiers, who have policing powers, used tear gas to repel a small group of opposition candidates near the legislature on a busy downtown street, TV images showed, after they appeared to clash with parliament workers.
“‘We were walking toward the assembly. We were going to read a document, and without warning the National Guard started firing tear gas,’ candidate Stalin Gonzalez told opposition TV station Globovision. The parliament issued a statement accusing the candidates of trying to force their way into the building.” Â
