Counterpoint to Tom Friedman who loves to talk about the efficiency of China - because it is a dictatorship Tom. Why don’t you mention that?

America is not supposed to have a democracy. We are supposed to have a representative republic.

Democracies always end in tyranny. The more we become a democracy, the closer we get to that end.

For those who don’t know, the title of the piece is an allusion to The God That Failed, a 1949 book which collects together six essays with the testimonies of a number of famous ex-communists, who were writers and journalists. The common theme of the essays is the authors’ disillusionment with and abandonment of communism.
