Hypothetical situation: if you had to live in a Nazi-style fascist regime, or a USSR-style Communist regime, which one would you choose, and why? Which one do you think would be the first to eventually reform itself and embrace freedom and capitalism?

A short while ago, I seriously considered deleting this question due to the abysmal responses I had gotten. Then "espreses@sbcglobal.net" answered the question. People, this is the man to beat. He's head and shoulders ahead of everyone. Does anyone want to edit their responses and put a little more effort into it?

Fascism of course. Unlike the communists, the fascists understand business. The countries that have embraced the fascist model have been more prosperous, with more upward mobility. With the communists you get mediocre leadership that controlls all means of production, wealth is illegal, property ownership illegal, and all decisions are made by committees that are populated by people you posses the skills of the average government school teacher. For a comparison use Franco's Spain & Castro's Cuba, kind of a no brainer.

I agree with fascism. Seeing as that most liberals say we are in a fascist state today, if thats true. At least today I can eat lobster when I feel like it rather than waiting on my five pound block of government cheese.
Nazi Germany was fascist state, although they did horrible things, but in no way did they EVER try and prevent their citizens from obtaining wealth of any kind. On the contrary, it was celebrated. Hitler himself brought Germany out of poverty and depression and he ran it quite well until he lost his mind and went berserk.

Well let's see.... the Nazi Government was a form of Socialism.... the Soviet Union's Government was a form of Socialism....
National Socialism or
Union of Soviet Socialist Republics
Sorry, but there really isn't much difference between to two.
Which would reform first? It took external forces to reform both.

Look at her recent ideas on "shared Responsibility."
Let's elect hillary and let another clinton make a joke out of the whitehouse.
