‘Attacking Freedom’: Venezuelan Immigrant Sees Warning Signs Of ‘Socialism’ In US

A Venezuelan immigrant who fled the country’s socialist regime told the Daily Caller News Foundation there are indications that the U.S. is heading down the path of socialism.

Andrés Guilarte, a political activist who has been living as an asylum seeker in the United States for three years, said that price and currency controls that have contributed to “rising inflation and rampant crime,” as well as government attacks on freedom of speech, are warning signs of an embrace of socialism.

Democrats have recently pushed the Consumer Fuel Price Gouging Prevention Act, which would allow the Federal Trade Commission to punish fossil fuel companies if they are deemed to be inflating the price of gas or oil. President Joe Biden has repeatedly blamed rising energy prices on oil companies, urging them to “bring down the price at the pump.”

“In a socialist regime, leaders always have to deflect blame for the country’s struggles to something else; they do not claim responsibility,” Guilarte told the DCNF.
