Something no socialist or communist in the world understands..

[ironglow]

A simple video, perhaps 1 minute long, demonstrates what no socialist or communist can comprehend..

  ..And the fact that they cannot grasp this simple equation, has brought death to hundreds of millions and poverty to billions.

  If they were as bright as they claim to be...they could save those billions of peope..

But if you wonder why Dummycratics are so enamored by communism; you should go on YouTube and see how the elite commies live.  In particular, look up Vladimir Putin.  That sob makes  rich people in this country look like street bums.  One of his wrist watches is valued at a million bucks.  He has yachts worth over a billion and homes worth multi-billions.  Putin doesn't have a couple of Air Force Ones, he has a fleet of giant jets to get around in.  And all this on a salary equivalent to $140,000  per year.

   Communism always has the powerful potentates who are filthy rich...and then the rest of the people..same in Venezuela, Cuba, North Korea..

   ...Just what the WEF means when they say, "You will own nothing and be happy"..  An old Commie siren song...

  ..And so many are so IGNORANT of history, that they endorse it heartily..

George Orwell's "Animal Farm" should be required reading in grade school.

Good video, BTW.

Along with 1984 with proven comprehension and discussed at the front of the class. A very interesting man even without his fictional books that were not totally fictional... His history is enlightening.

Putin may well have all of those things, Putin is not, however, a communist. Russia ceased being a communist country on Christmas day in 1991.; It has since been evolving into a parliamentary democracy. Democratic traditions, however, are weak in Russia and Putin has taken full advantage of that.

Its good that we have someone here that actually knows Pootun, and what his beliefs actually are. I've never met the man.

Putin is not, however, a communist. Russia ceased being a communist country on Christmas day in 1991.

You'll understand if some of us remain skeptical about this statement.  I haven't believed communism in Russia was really dead ever since the "Gipper" administration outspent them, forcing the wall to come down.

  From DG;

 "Putin may well have all of those things, Putin is not, however, a communist. Russia ceased being a communist country on Christmas day in 1991.; It has since been evolving into a parliamentary democracy. Democratic traditions, however, are weak in Russia and Putin has taken full advantage of that."

  I believe that what DG said is essentially true, and technically, Putin is not a communist..
    However, saying he is not a communist is akin to saying a zebra isn't really a horse...in a strict sense of the word.   However, the effects are 
    basically the same for the Russian people...and the foremer communist block, if he can arrange it !

It doesn't matter to me what Putin thinks, or what he believes.  The point I was making is that the dummycratic politicians in this country are rotten to the core and if they have any beliefs at all it is to fill their pockets with the proceeds of other peoples labors.  Yeah, that is a gross generalization, but close enough.  Osama Obama and Joe Brandon have pushed the limits and left no doubt.

Y’know….after reading through responses to this thread, I see a variety of interpretations of what communism is. It is true that a substantial number of Russians miss the predictability, the security of communism. The gov’t gave them a job, food and a place to live. For many, the bill of rights was irrelevant; it was a set of ideas that the average Russia had little experience with having gone from the Czars, to Lenin, to Stalin with no stops at Rousseau or Jefferson and Franklin.
When the communist party was outlawed by Yeltsin in 1991, there was a yawning vacuum politically and economically, capitalism reared it's ugly head and the lust for power and wealth began (aided by lots of Russian oil and gas).
Do you think that the movers and shakers, the Putins, the Lisins, Potanins, Durovs, want to go back to five year plans. Not likely.
As to those misguided folk who espouse communism, they are fools. I doubt they understand what communism is.
