He claims chinese archives have never really been opened like the soviets' finally were after 1989, but now they're starting to. He estimates 45 million dead in 1958-1962 thanks to the insanity of Big Wang and his cadres. That's the difference between capitalism and communism: communism starves 45 million - f o r t y f i v e m i l l i o n (45, 000, 000) in four or five years; capitalism gives you 45 different varieties of knockoff Mountain Dew.

Capitalism is a generous God, indeed.
"Bless us Oh Lord of Money, and these thy gifts of soda pop, which we are about to receive, from thy bounty, through Capitalism, Our Lord. Amen."
If only we could learn to make Mountain Dew ourselves, without the aid of Capitalism. Is it not said, "that Capitalism helps those that help themselves."
