When I was born, Truman, Stalin, and Churchill were considered to be the "leaders" of the world.
Yet it is ever more perplexing to me, by the day, how it is that "socialism" and "communism" which are, in theory, the most egalitarian and compassionate of social structures, ended up, as implemented by 20th-century humans, in the worst and most repressive and oppressive governmental structures in the world.
Clearly, it is the humans that are the problem, not the concepts.
