If you think I am a Communist Cheerleader than you know nothing about me.
What you should know is that nations under Communist Party rule have open trade with the United States. These include China, a brutal dictatorship under CP rule which happens to have an active trade policy with the United States. as well as Vietnam. In fact the most closed society to US trade is North Korea. The North Koreans are ruled by a psychopath and he is determined to rule NK just as his daddy and granddaddy did. It matters nothing if his people starve as long as he rules.
