"Perhaps"??

Actually, almost (<---note the qualifier) every single person left alive and stuck behind the Iron Curtain got a raw deal, both during and after the Russian Revolution, and this right on up to the collapse of the communist system in that part of the world. Indeed, most folks in Eastern Europe consider America to be ideal compared to their experience(s) under the former Soviet system.

This is fact.

Don't try to sugar-coat communism. If you think it's so wonderful, then move to China or North Korea.
