Sure communism is great if you are one of the party elites in charge. Maybe you had a cushy KGB job and instilled fear in all of your former citizens. Fear of being put in jail or some type of "gulag" or re-education camp. I bet the people in the gulag got a kick out of communsim.

I bet all the "choices" available to you under communism were staggering.

I bet you were a real estate magnate back in the U.S.S.R. Oh wait, I forgot. No private property. The state owns everything and you owe everything to the state. As a matter of fact, the state WAS everything. No individualism. All collectivism. No open practice of religion because God was replaced by the state. Fuck with these rules and you go to a gulag. Sounds really great!

How about the millions killed in Stalin's purges. How about all the other people who simply disappeared because of something they said. I bet criticizm of the government was a proud part of the Soviet system and tradition.

You are just what America needs. Another ungrateful immigrant who loves to criticize America.

Be thankful you have the right to say anything. You never used to.

Are you sure you are not still a communist? We have plenty right here in this country. I would suggest you join the Democratic Party. They would love you. You have a knack for propaganda.
