<<When will the Capitalist leaders learn they are the ones that impose
conditions so harsh that communism looks appealing.>>

James, I have thought about that for a long time , and am now of the mind that it is intentional, for reasons that don't exactly come clear to me, but I am fairly sure that these people are not fools and must see the results of their decisions..

[When will the Capitalist leaders learn they are the ones that impose conditions so harsh that communism looks appealing]

What was it Cuban revolutionary Ernesto "Che" Guevara said? "I am not a Communist, but the Americans could turn a person into one?"

Most Americans turn a blind eye to the nasty stuff their government does and supports overseas -- how many billions of our tax dollars are given to foreign governments by the U.S so that they can kill their own citizens? Americans should talk to people from countries that have been affected. Ask Latin Americans how the U.S. supported brutal dictatorships, ask the Indonesians how the U.S. supported Suharto, even when his government was killing people in East Timor by the thousands. And, let us not forget the support the U.S. gave Saddam Hussein, when he started a war with Iran.
