The Twisted Economics of Twenty-First-Century Socialism

Chávez may have wanted to “pulverize” capitalism, but the president’s stewardship of the Venezuelan economy seems to have helped private firms more than workers. An interactive graphic explains how, during his tenure, the country’s stock market skyrocketed while real wages collapsed.
