Socialist Scam

Just a reminder:

Socialism has been tried by lots of countries. It's failed. It always fails. China prospered somewhat only after they legalized some private enterprise. Perhaps today's kids are ignorant because they're too young to remember the fall of the Soviet Union. They should look at North Korea -- the ultimate "socialist utopia." I recently interviewed Charles Ryu, who escaped North Korea and made it to China. "It felt like getting into a time machine and fast forwarding 50 years ... 24-hour running electricity ... All the food that I can eat ... It was life changing." "We Americans think of China as a surveillance state," I point out, "They'll punish you if you say the wrong thing. But for you, it was freedom?" "(The) Chinese government does watch your every move ... But in North Korea, it's 100 times worse."

Kinder, gentler socialism still doesn't work...
