Communism != socialism. There's much more socialism in the nordic countries then USA for example but they are wealthy, unrestricted internet AND have great socialized healthcare. As with most things it's about finding the right balance rather then choosing one or the other.

Yes, it is so. No, nordic countries aren't the example for leftists I mentioned.

Actually there's this conjecture that if communist revolution didn't happen in Russia it would now be more like 300 million strong Sweden, not 145 million Nigeria in snow.
