I assure you, capitalism has killed more people than that. We just don't call them victims of capitalism.

  At least in Capitalism you are allowed to talk about your suffering. In the communist utopias of the 20th century, speaking of your suffering or trying to alleviate it was a capital offence.

  I'd really like to see your accounting to see if it's apples to apples, because the 50-100M is not counting people who died due to proxy wars, or anything like that, just people who lived directly under communist governments, and died directly because of communist policies that lead to things like mass starvation, and in many cases, because of literal death squads. It's surprising that people already seem to be forgetting how incredibly horrible communism was when implemented.

  We're going to need more than assurances to see your point.
