HI Bobby, Ironic isn't it. Communsim came about from what was considered an unfair disparity between the rich and the poor. The haves and have nots. Sort of sounds like that garbage that spuse from the current administration and most liberal democrates. We have to spread it around and take it away from the rich so we can give it to the poor. Socialist talk the same stuff. The difference between them is that the socialist don't want to kill the golden goose (rich), the communist do. We have had 75 years of communism and 40 years of socialism and we find it doesn't work, yet we still have folks out there that would like to see this country go that route. Punish the rich, the industrius, the creative, the educated (?), the hard working and give it to the lazy and irrisponsible. The reason the rich get richer is because the rich keep getting smarter and work harder. Government keep the poor poor. Thats what keeps them in power, control. India is a good example. Another good one is Cuba. Russia & China and all of Upper Asia are other good examples. This is the 20th centry and go to some of these places. Looks the same as it did in the 17th centry. With communism the folks realized this wasn't all craped up to be what they thought. They found they had less had to do more for less. When they realized this was a barrel of bad apples the folks said no. The bad boys said yes and I have the gun to prove it. There is an old saying. The grass looks greener on the otherside until you get there and you eat it. Then you find out it isn't. It only looks greener because there isn't anyone there that wants it.;-) Thats how faciasm, natzies, communisism, socializism all got their starts. When the folks began to taste what they were given, that is when they realized just how good they had it.;-) Ron
