What's preventing a "communist hellhole" from implementing something similar? Nothing? I referred to a fantasy, not reality. (Don't get confused.) It's possible I missed one of the cautionary tales I was supposed to catch to truly inculcate the proper American fear and hatred of foreigners. If you can point me to some 1980s-era capitalist propaganda that features this particular horror, I'll concede the point. Back in the real world, it seems possible that e.g. China already has this, or will soon. I wouldn't take either side in the "is China communist?" argument, for fear of offending. I don't care very much, because I don't live in China. I'm concerned with the particular drain that my own nation is circling. You apparently share my apprehension; otherwise you would have argued that this wouldn't happen here rather than that it will also happen there.
