While it's cute to make a witty retort such as that, it's such a cheap shot. When your grandparents are dragged out of their homes in the middle of the night, when your brothers and sisters are jailed for simply showing up at a big crowd, when your family's estate is taken without any questions or answers, when you don't have enough money to buy your way out of a citation and you get lost in the jail system, when all that happens at the whim of a Communist party, you can then come back and draw parallels.

Maybe not as cheap as you think. You see, my family immigrated from the former USSR, and my relatives and acquaintances did have... complications similar to what you describe. Guess what? America is drawing nearer and nearer to the situation you describe. Here's a link, for example: http://uspolitics.tribe.net/thread/8a01efa4-d980-4ec7-8e1e-986f93e0a0b0 http://uspolitics.tribe.net/thread/8a01efa4-d980-4ec7-8e1e-9...
