Here, the government was in every aspect of your life, and she saw it immediately, and she hated it. I had spent time there as well, and had to admit she was right.

Early this year someone who left the Ukraine in the 80s told me that it's starting to feel like the Soviet Union. I didn't prompt the comment.

“Early this year someone who left the Ukraine in the 80s told me that it’s starting to feel like the Soviet Union. I didn’t prompt the comment. “

1. A guy I work with who grew up in communist Poland said this of Obama in 2008: “I know a commie when I see one. This is one”

2. Another coworker who came here from Russia after the fall of the Soviet Union agreed with that comment

3. Last summer, a friend of mine introduced me to us mother, who fled Nicaragua in 1978. Her words to me - “I left Nicaragua to escape the Marxists, yet I see the same thing now happening here. What is wrong with people?” I had no answer for her.

I work in a hospital with lots of foreign-born people. It’s amazing that the ones from Communist or formerly Communist countries ALL say THE SAME THING about Obama! Russia, Romania, Venezula,Poland etc. they all have the same opinion about what is happening here. Scary.
