People who have never studied socialism, don't understand there is more than one example. Im not really sure. When my parents immigrated here from a socialist country, they were promised dreams of a glamorous west. I wont make a mocker of the discussion or reveal how hard they had it in the beginning and their whole lives for my sake. But they were very disappointed and missed home very much. They become Canadianized over the years and never felt like they belonged back home anymore, especially since back home turned capitalist and failed miserably.... They all agree on the golden era of the 60s of their country.
