Of course, to people outside of the US, what was going on in the US was obvious.
They should just get rid of these socialist laws which are supposedly designed to protect your comrades but which actually serve the interests of a small number of politically connected elite by hindering mobility... Let's face it, what you have in the US is textbook communism.
It's ironic that Russia today is more capitalist than the US... It's like both countries lost the cold war against each other.
- SomewhatLikely 6y agoRegulation is tantamount to communism and socialism? Ownership is still private in the US but has rules on what can be done. Russia has state ownership in many of that country's companies.
- cryptica 6y agoRegulations designed to protect people from themselves are inherently socialist... The fact that these regulations actually end up creating a moat around the elites (by locking regular people out of opportunities) is inherently communist. This is exactly what the Soviet political elites did to keep living the good life at the expense of their poor citizens; all under the pretext of protecting people from themselves.
