If everyone living in a Communist country is unhappy, how do you explain the big pro-Communist vote in the recent Russian elections (have they forgotten already what it was like 10 years ago?). How do explain the tenacity with which the North Korean and North Vietnamese regular troops fought us in two wars? Why didn't they all just surrender and defect?

No, I wouldn't be happy in Cuba; I'm used to something different. However, I haven't haerd any reports out of Cuba of 6 year olds shooting other six years, of murderous rampages such as in Pittsburgh, of bombings of federal buildings full of children, etc. We have a few problems here too.
