Chapter 22 Part 1

This chapter is focusing on the rise and fall of communism. Some people accused Barack Obama of being a communist. On a very reliable website called "commieblaster.com" they boast this slogan: PROGRESSIVES = SOCIALISTS = COMMUNISTS = LEFT-WING RADICALS = ANTI-CAPITALISTS = UNAMERICAN. They have also apparently confirmed that Obama is marxist. This is frustrating because when people do not like something they begin to search for excuses. Which can be extremely ridiculous. Communism is a socialist movement that strives to make everyone equal for the most part. This is one by eliminating social classes and such. It sounds like a good idea... in theory. But it has never really worked out. The Soviet Union and China are the most popular communist countries that I know of. Russia went through a revolution which resulted in the Cold War! And then look at China, bad stuff happened under their dictator, Mao Zedong, and millions of people died in the search for social perfection.
