...agree, like i posted, the would be communism in the USSR and eastern Europe did not work. Sure. because it WAS no communism, but besides the fact that it has quiete obviously not been developed for normal human beeings the IDEA is quiet great and does work really good on a smaller grade (look at the Kibbuz in Israel)... ...I lived in the GDR for all my life and i am still living in what is left, i only have first hand information on the GDR but one thing is clear : We had no poverty, no hunger, no unemployment and we had a good life - we lacked many things, which were quiet common in other industrial nations like most kinds of electronics (well we had them actually, but no one could afford), but our life was not bad. Sure, it is against any human right to build a wall around a country to keep the citizens in - but communism as i encounterd in the GDR was not all too bad.
