I took World History as a high school elective in 1958.

When we got to the communism part, I remember commenting to the teacher that, it seemed to me, once you got everyone's standard of living up, communism wouldn't be a bad way to live. She exploded. Nowadays, I'd probably have gotten an A for the year.

Born too soon.

In 1956, my high school teachers were visibly upset that the communists were snuffing out freedom in Hungary.
