Watch what happens sometime if I post something here from the Heritage Foundation. I've long ago learned I have to bypass conservative sources and try to pull up original material to avoid having something dismissed solely because of the source of the information.

You think this guy is saying anything new? After it became painfully obvious that communism wasn't going to "leave the West in the dust" by creating a workers' paradise of industrial prosperity, it all became about telling us how capitalism and the free market were going to collapse of their own weight, or getting beyond that, that it was bad for people and the planet.

They've been doing this for my entire adult life. They haven't been right yet.

Meanwhile, I'm working on my computer with a hot cup of coffee, and people in Marxist countries are eating bark. At some point, even for people like Jacques, the clue has to land.
