  1. They point to the “successes” of the former Soviet Union, Mao’s China, Pol Pot’s Cambodia, Castro’s Cuba, North Korea, and Chávez’s Venezuela. The rulers always did pretty well for themselves, the population not so much.

  2. “The best, and still the surest way, to effectively take over a country is to overwhelm it’s economic resources. If you don’t believe me, ask Russia…which, of course, is no longer Russia. The ideas which we know worked there, we know will work here as well.”

  3. @4, he didn’t say where they “worked”. We all know his definition of “work” isn’t what normal people’s is, the noun or the verb.
    For example:
    “working families” = non-working single welfare mothers.
    “We want to put Americans back to work” = We want every American on food stamps and getting paid $15/hr at McDonalds 10 hours a week.
    “…the notion that if you work hard and take responsibility, you can get ahead.” = If you don’t feel like working, you may not get “ahead” but you’ll get everything you need handed to you so why bother.
