>I like most of the folks I met in these years in the US - they are great people. I met only a few Russians I didn't like. But I don't put much of a preference between USA and USSR - they were both too big to be good, both had imperial policies, and, frankly, I don't drink brown sugar waters. Coke, Pepsi - equally disliked. Rampant corporativism isn't much better than stalinism, IMO. It isn't even more colorful.

Wow, just wow.

Tens of millions of dead would beg to differ but...oh nevermind...I forgot it's all morally relative to communists.

Have a great weekend all!
