MARX-Russia and China - today high above FRIEDMAN-USA
Russia and China decided to become just as crazy as the USA. They gave like the Americans, where Middle Class and Poor gave all money away to billionaires, also in Russia all the wealth of State away to Oligarchs of Gorbachev, Yeltsin and Putin - or in China to the Golden Sons and Daughters of China Congress in Beijing.
Well, now they ALL have the problem of Wall Street. The orthodox believers in New York have, based on subprime and derivative bets on NOTHING, created a worldwide Loss of 100 trillions of Dollars, of which only 40 trillions became evident so far - until autumn 2009. The rest will blow up in 2010 and thereafter.
Let's imagine, Russia and China would still be MARXIST today.
No doubt, they would be high above a western world that just started to collapse now. The years 2010 to 2015 will be terrible, because all Junk Values are still in all Balance Sheets of Banks, Insurance, Hedge Funds, Investment and old-age savings - throughout our globe.
Let's see what would have been, if Communism would have survived:
Russia
The wealth of the Nation, oil and gas and metal and all not yet prospected trillions in values would belong to the whole folks. Full-employment and guaranteed health care and best of education - instead of Greed, Growth, Stupidity and Western style of stock exchanges.
Russia would still be a serious partner to USA and China and could dictate now, based on its army and wealth in the grounds, what is going on in Asia and Africa - instead of having become a little mouse without influence, without a good industry and zero services - when corruption and criminality and number of Whores increase from day to day.
Russia has decided to make a gift of at least 100 trillions of values to some idiotic Oligarchs, Putin and Medvedev try to keep under control, when these Junk chaps bring the fortune to Swiss and U.S. banks.
What a nice program of Capitalism! Secret Putin services instead of COMINTERN. I think, there is not much of a difference - what you think, Politkovskaya and Litvinenko----?
China
As I have written in "China - without emergency EXIT" - China is fully dependent on Dollars being maintained in value, possessing some trillions in Junk U.S. Treasury Bonds.
And China has no drop of Oil and no gas- but deserts coming over towns, and rotten water in rivers and air to be cut with a knife in their unified modern Slums full of standing cars.
Note in addition: Exports to USA and Europe break away and Chinese are dependent on own home-market of China, full on the way to the greatest BUBBLE ever seen in economics - not only in real estate, a catastrophe to come.
So, if China would still have nice Maoism or Marxism, and would help workers and peasants and 3000 Idiots out of Beijing Congress - China would have a chance on the future - without wanting to buy any material stuff in Australia and other nations and try to develop agriculture in Africa and surrounding States, to get the mouth of 1300 million of poor Chinese chaps full of food, whereas some billionaires bring all money out over Hong Kong to Singapore and Switzerland.
I know, I know - this is too high for brains in USA, Russia and China.
But I am sure that some Mongolians or chaps from Chile, Argentine, Guatemala, Ghana, Tibet, Chechnya or Paris around Sarkozy, or London around Brown-Blair, or Washington around Peace-Meal Obama and BO, will get the point.
