[Dilbert San Diego]

If they are good communists, how can they take property and sell to evil capitalist investors? Why aren’t those so called investors being sent to reeducation camp? Instead they are allowed to make evil capitalist profit???

[Louis Foxwell]

Communism is oligarchy. It codifies the wealth of the 1% by appropriating the property of the masses. What is missing in the communist system is a middle class. Progressive efforts in the last 50 years have reduced the size of the middle class by 2/3 in their efforts to create an oligarchy in the US. The Vietnamese Christians are remarkable. Here is a statement by their Bishop in commemoration of some of their hundreds of thousands of martyrs.

Mgr Joseph Nguyễn called on believers to “live the martyr's spirit” in today's environment and bear witness to God and the Gospel. The prelate encourages them to visit people living in distress, illness, imprisonment, old age, loneliness, disability as part of a pilgrimage to Christ. He said that people should “reduce their spending on unnecessary things to help the poor, the religious and welfare bodies as well as engage in activities for the common good of their community.”
