These quotes are for my brothers-in-arms, Valdis Krebs and Doug Mazanec, who had to put up with my entreprenuerial rhetoric today:

"Communism is not love. Communism is a hammer which we use to crush the enemy." - Mao Zedong, 1893 - 1976 "Capitalism and communism stand at opposite poles. Their essential difference is this: The communist, seeing the rich man and his fine home, says: 'No man should have so much.' The capitalist, seeing the same thing, says: 'All men should have as much.'" - Phelps Adams "How do you tell a communist? Well, it's someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It's someone who understands Marx and Lenin." - Ronald Wilson Reagan "A communist is like a crocodile: when it opens its mouth you cannot tell whether it is trying to smile or preparing to eat you up." - Winston Churchill, 1874 - 1965 "I have spent all my life under a Communist regime, and I will tell you that a society without any objective legal scale is a terrible one indeed. But a society with no other scale but the legal one is not quite worthy of man either." - Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, Harvard University commencement address, 7 June 1978 "Communism is like one big phone company." - Lenny Bruce

Most of us here in America are fortunate. My parents were born here, as were their parents. I've only know one person personally who escaped from Hungary and their communist regime there. Have you talked to anyone from a communist or former communist country lately?
