No, I believe HItler was the most vile, evil individual to walk the Earth... he not only had a terrible means, but also a sickening end... my point was merely that his means and our means (atomic bombs) were no worse from one another... both killed innocent women, children, and citizens. As far as comparing China or even Cuba to America... no, I don't see much difference as to the level of "evil". We like to glaze over our wrongs, but in fact we have and continue to do very evil, sick things. China and Cuba (Japan would also be an excellent example) merely have different scopes of vision w/ their political philosophies: they care more about their country than they do particular individuals. We are a country built on individual rights, while they were countries looking for a better country as a whole... meaning the "sacrificing" of a few individuals for the better of society is not beyond them, while we let people such as OJ Simpson go free on the streets. Looking at it objectively, I don't see one as worse than the other, as good & bad are relative terms, though I on a personal level prefer that of individual rights... maybe because I AM an individual?? - Zen
