Maryland abolishes death penalty.

Does it really matter much if we're stuck in the left ditch vs the right? Only an extremist, ideologue would say it matters. And if they don't even get out of the car to help look for the carjack, the least they can do is bray to their god silently.

First I was mainly trying to prove shoju wrong, not to say that communism is best.
Second: I find Cuba a pretty good example. Despite a boycott from most part of the world, they are doing a lot better than the surrounding island states.
They however show the main problem here....it will not work when it is not a dictatorship.....people tend to want more for themselves so if they see how easy they can make money in the US by selling drugs, of course they want to flee, and of course the leaders start oppressing.
The only thing we could try is give the communists their own state. So everybody who is in to it can move there so that at least there are only like minds there.......of course issues will arise when they need to export and import goods.....
