Your main poster "Communism killed 100,000,000" is not only untrue, but ignores the fact that CAPITALISM has killed many more and the evidence for that can be seen in the daily news papers.

Just another example of ignorance. Capitalism is system for allocation resources. Communism is this plus a political/social system. You can't place the blame for political decisions on an economic system. It should be pointed out that China, a Communist country, is partly engaging in capitalism so the two aren't even mutually exclusive. Likewise corporations are not a requirement of Capitalism, nor do large economic organizations devoted to making money exist only in a capitalist environment.

I think this guy is confusing the reason for 100 Mill deaths under Capitalism. These people died of old age, an age approximately 30 years older than their Communist counterparts. And the numbers are in the Billions.

And what about the people who have been saved by Capitalist inspired inventions, drugs and the like.

Not only does this guy need a political education it look like he is in need of remedial arithmetic. The need for psychoanalysis goes without saying.

Did anyone happen to catch "The Killing Fields" last nigh on HBO?? It was a pleasant reminder of the wonders of communism.
