Capitalism Explained In 2015: "You Have Two Cows..."
• http://www.zerohedge.com, Tyler DurdenIt started off like this:
Socialism: You have two cows. Give one to your neighbor.
Then
Communism: You have two cows. The government takes both and gives you some milk.
And
Fascism: You have two cows. The government takes both and shoots you.
I started thinking about this last week when I was in Caracas, because it turns out that Venezuela is a real life example of the two cows metaphor.
It started back in 2001 when the then-President of Venezuela, Hugo Chavez, introduced a law that called for the redistribution of land.
