in this country. Communism/socialism have been so demonized & our heroes were deported in the 1950s. We've lost a generation or two here at least. So, we get our guidance where we can. I do a lot of reading on the KKE's website (Greece's communist party). OWS has resisted, which is positive for sure, but asking for a kindler, gentler capitalism is not enough.
