Ok, so who is Kerensky?
The socialists have to have an economy to drain. So your paralell of Mensheviks is right on. The real problem is the federal reserve pump of a market that does not exist, supporting the mensheviks, who support the socialists who are shaking them down as another accounting book entry.

I look at the Republicans as Mensheviks in the sense that they want the same thing the democrat/communists want, and think they are playing a nice game of patty-cake. The Republicans are totally blind to the fact that the democrat/communists are continuously working toward their extermination to create perpetual political hegemony.
