Z, > Do you really, truly think that's why it failed?

Of course I do. Even China is getting away from the communist model.

> Once again, would you stop working because you could get a small, bare-bones apartment, health care, and three adequate squares a day?

I wouldn't, but then again, you and I are the "exception."

I know a LOT of people who would, though, especially video game fanatics like me. Have you heard of a growing social phenomenon in Japan, where single men stop working and become recluses who surf the Internet all day?
