A growing movement toward socialism is emerging in the American politisphere as more individuals self-identify as Democratic Socialists and take leadership positions at the local, state, and federal levels. How much US citizens know about socialism is debatable. To address this knowledge gap, ***Liberty Nation News*** spoke at length with Pedro Burelli, a former board member of Petróleos de Venezuela, SA, who lived through the socialist experiment in his home country, Venezuela.

Mr Burelli shares a poignant and heartbreaking story of life under socialism. He is a well-known advocate for liberty and justice.
