Texas Rep. Dan Crenshaw posted a video online explaining “why socialism doesn’t work” as conservatives gathered for the annual Conservative Political Action Conference with a theme this year of “America vs. Socialism.”

“Socialism doesn’t work because it removes human incentive,” Crenshaw argued in the one-minute video. Crenshaw also said socialism infringes on freedoms, takes wages, and establishes government control.
