Private enterprise is a wonderful thing, even in Russia.

“Our government is destroying America.”

They are deliberately destroying the Middle Class, and bringing the control of the sources of great wealth into their political circle

As always, Leftists totalitarians are attempting to bring down any class of people who might resist their rule. “Class enemies” are anyone not loyal to the Party, who are not dependent on the Party for their very lives.

Uppity bourgeois middle-class types who think that they can have their own opinions, and have “rights” that protect them from coercion will be systematically impoverished, until they subserviently come on bended knee to the Government for their food coupons.

Even if the economy falls to one tenth of its previous size, and mountains of dead bodies are created, the Leftists will rule it completely, indulging their every whim, and living in the palaces.

Lenin said that taxation and inflation were the millstones between which he would crush the Bourgeoise (Middle Class, Professionals, Farmers, Small Business Owners). Modern Leftists have added regulation as a primary tool to transform society into an elite ruling class, and broad masses of powerless and dependent subjects.

It is all about consolidating absolute power for the ruling elite of the Left. Sweet sounding lies and misinformation are their main tools when they are weak, but when they become strong their repression knows no limits - piles of bodies become the norm.

Old Soviet joke:

Question: Comrade Commissar, Is it possible to build socialism in the USA?

Answer: Yes, is possible. But then where would we buy our grain?

If farmers are freed to pursue their best interests in the new Russia, they have eleven time zones of underutilized land to farm, and a cheap currency that gives them a big export advantage.

According to the article, Russian wheat production has been growing big time for the last ten years, since land was again allowed to be freely bought and sold, and farmers started investing for the longer term.
