How Many Times?

How many times must collectivism (socialism, communism, Naziism, Progressivism and all the other "isms") fail before people get it? Collectivism has failed every time it has been tried after a while. And those countries still practicing it WILL fail. They just don’t know it and will never admit it, even as the walls are falling all around them. Russian communism has failed (It only took 75 years and several million deaths),  but they still practice socialism, never learning from experience. Castro’s communism in Cuba has been failing from the beginning. The average age of cars (not driven by government officials, of course) is the fifties. Buildings are crumbling for lack of maintenance. People are starving. But Castro still lives in a fine house and has plenty of money, stolen from that still left. His regime will fall soon. But people are still pushing the idea of socialism, even as it fails all over the globe for lack of INCENTIVE to produce. (Liberty Alliance)
