> They may be free enterprise in terms of an economic system but they are all communist in terms of a political system. There is little freedom in Vietnam; certainly no pubic dissent or voting (South Vietnam at least had the former, if not the latter).
Yes they are, but I think that more of the North bacame free enterprise that the South became communist. And you are correct. They have no free speech or movement, but that’ll come with time.
“They have no free speech or movement, but that’ll come with time.”
I wish that was true. We’ve been hearing that same nonsense about Red China while we shipped our manufacturing work (and workers’ futures) over there, and it isn’t happening; in fact, “American” companies have developed the software for their dictators to monitor their media freedom. Not just blocking sites, but reporting the users to The Authority. We are the tools by which the Red Chinese government enslaves its population, and in return they slave for us.
