Tami, I lived in USSR.

Yep, there're more and more signs of liberal-socialist coo-coo in the US...so don't laugh about mandatory communist parades that one had to partake in. May be you're next...The large corporations now give in to insanity, I notice, out of fear of lawsuits, and do things like sending out emails "suggesting" to donate to "migrants in Europe"...or sending out apologetic emails about how they support "all sexual orientations" on LGBT day...AKA sneaking political agenda everywhere. So , wait and you might have mandatory donations deducted from your paycheck soon (oops, you--and me-- already do have a bunch of them, by April 14)...or forced to participate in some bullshit diversity events, listening to some BS speeches. Or, someone will come up to you, like they were coming up to people in some university libraries or restaurants on the East Coast and demand you state support for some movement "OR ELSE" (like BLM members did)...the fear will be the feeling here, if these take over.

I remember a soviet pilot who stole a mig and landed in Japan in the 80's.

After a while in America his observation was...

The USA did communism right.

Now we are busy f*#king it all up.

Almost eight years of this thread would drive almost anyone crazy.
Politics Shmolitics...people do a lot of stupid sh#t trying persuade the hearts and minds of others, most of whom would never be convinced by argument or proof to change their minds anyway.

Why maintain a constant argument with yourself and everybody over some tired ideology your parents passed down to you...for blood pressure deregulation? Heart disease and stroke candidacy? That ought to be a new campaign slogan,
"Watch me have a stroke trying to convince you to have a stroke over what you believe!"

Seriously, politics ain't too chill. You may now return to your regularly scheduled regurgitation fest. In the meantime enjoy some original first rate literature on me...

Thomas reach over and caressed her soft brown hair. Then, as the credits rolled up the big screen he leaned over to kiss her. She turned her cheek away from his advance and said, "I didn't care what your politics were when I met you and I don't care now. It's just that you're obsessed with it and you can't shut up about it!" Thomas loved Laura but, that text from Alena was still on his phone. Laura was going to be at the trade convention that weekend and he thought, "maybe?..."

I live in a "communist" country right now.

Frankly, it seems freer to me than the US.

Go downtown wherever you are, and parade around for a couple hours with signs saying "Arrest Xi Jinping", or "Stop Falun Gong Oppression" (written in Chinese) and report what happens :-)

America tried to have a government "of by and for the people".

Instead we sold our government and our freedom to corrupt corporate capitalism. It's not complicated.

So the question remains

Does Blue consider all liberals to be "Communists"

Is Social Security a Communist plot to undermine our economy?

Are all social programs Communist?

Which social programs not communist?, like maybe our police and military programs

Do you think that the police, fire and military should be privatized so they aren't so Communist?

But there are many others I do have, more so I'd say than you do in the US.

I'm also very curious what "freedoms" exist in China that citizens in the US DON'T have?

Having lived in the PRC for a few years, I'm unable to think of what this could possibly be. I found China extremely restrictive, and basically a police state.

Bluring fears that us liberals, which he calls "communists" will take all his freedoms away

So he has to fight against liberals, so his tribe can bring back corporate slavery
and then he will feel a lot more free

You need to talk to some Chinese dissidents, Randisi, instead of being a CCP apologist :-)

The latter might be good for your career, though. Personally I prefer clean air.

Not true, Dr. F. A few pages back Bluering came out in favor of worker's councils. In some parts of the world, they are known as soviets.
http://www.dictionary.com/browse/soviet
(after the revolution) a local council, originally elected only by manual workers, with certain powers of local administration.

I am proud to call Bluering "Comrade!"

For example,
I can't repair your home (more than $500) without a cost-prohibitive beaurocratic chain of events.
In the next 15-20 years we are going to face a horrifying reality as our housing infrastructure fails our retiring population. Our ' most important investment (our homes) are going to drown our baby-boomers in maintenance expenses.
It's like this, there is no shortage of willing workers, nor is there a shortage of important work to be done. So there must be a systemic breakdown that prevents us from doing important work in our communities. We have been sold out to a financial and regulatory system that blocks progress unless we support their corrupt involvement.
That's our freedom.

Hey, Randisi, is the Kool-Aid free? You probably don't even know about the
riots in Hong Kong cause you're so free. I need to look for the recent
article about the Partay's new propaganda campaign about being leery of
contacts with Westerners. Can you post up some of those posters? I can
if you're afraid to.

I bet you can't even check out this LA Times article:
http://www.latimes.com/world/asia/la-fg-china-dangeorus-love-20160427-story.html

The caption should read:
""A foreign friend has organized a gathering tonight. You're always trying to increase your foreign language level -- why don't you go with me?" "OK." Two young women are depicted in a poster campaign called "Dangerous Love" that appeared in residential communities all over Beijing."
