Sorry, but I've really had enough of people forming strong opinions but being totally misinformed. North Korea and Cuba are COMMUNIST, which operates under a command economy, and is totally different from having limited socialistic policy like free healthcare while still maintaining a market economy (capitalism) as in West Europe. I bolded and underlined the HUGE, UNMISTAKABLE differences so you might actually finally get the difference.Originally Posted by BanginJimmy
Also, China started its transition to a market economy nearly 30 years ago, the only thing that's still Communist in China is the name of the ruling party. Oh, and did I mention they're doing pretty well, too? Their standard of living isn't anything to get overly excited about, but I would never dream of putting them in the same boat as North Korea. In a few short years China will have a higher GDP than us. And you were trying to use them as an example of economic failure?
This doesn't reinforce my point about the difference between Communism and Socialism, but reinforces the notion that you obviously don't know **** about ****. You are dumb, learn some stuff and start posting again.
