Same in Soviet Union and when Mao took his "Great Leap Forward". We al know how it works out for those who cheer it on the most. In the end they cry when the boot is on their neck.
Exactly Patriot, who can forget the Killing Fields.
Even long after we left it continued. One of my coworkers told me of how his dad took the boys and left on his fishing boat. "We're just fishing sir!". He figured he could get his wife and daughter out some other way later. He got her on a boat twice, she was caught and returned to Vietnam both times. The third time he got her on the boat everyone on that boat just vanished with the boat captain never being heard from again. Possibly sank at sea. The only people enjoying a Marxist style government are the ones in charge.
Patriot, Thank you for sharing this. that is the part people are not seeing only the ones in charge enjoy it to a point. because even they can be replaced by suspicion alone.
