Things the Elite do to make us into “mushrooms”, (kept in the dark and fed ***t). I grew up in the USSR. Every day listening to the drumbeat of how evil America is and how lucky I am to live in the greatest and only superpower in the world. The news was full of stories of how bad the capitalist world was. They showed riots in the streets, acid rain, polluted water, hungry people out of work, all from American news programs. When I attended High school I had to take a mandatory military preparedness class. We were told that one day the USA would attack us, to take our resources. I learned to shoot pistols and an AK 47, field dress wounds. Drive military vehicles. We were taught that we lived a rich and abundant life. The workers’ paradise. My father was a Colonel in the Soviet Air force and thus was part of the privileged class in the USSR. The only thing wrong with the drumbeat was it was a lie. Everyone knew it. We knew it because we all spent most of our days in one form of line or another. Always looking for which store would have goods or services that would sustain us. The food was getting scarcer and the lines longer. We were paid in propaganda and slogans.

My father used to read Pravda newspaper and laugh at the cartoon caricature of Uncle Sam. He was always being defeated by the great USSR. We were fed lies to keep us from starting another revolution. The Communist Party lived the good life and everyone else scrambled for food. Now that I am in America, I can not see the difference between Pravda and the NY Times or Washington Post or any News station on TV. I can not see the difference between the Democrat Party and The Communist Party. They are the Elite class trying to tell everyone else how to live and they do not have to live by the same rules as the rest of the people. They hate America as much as any Socialist ever did.

My salvation came when I married my husband and we moved to America. The real “greatest nation in the world” and the last great hope for the world. Capitalism is not what we were taught in the Soviet Union. It allowed people to work hard and save and earn a living. I could get anything I wanted or needed as long as I was willing to earn it. There is plenty of everything we need on every store shelf.

The Socialist way was not the same. I could not earn anything more than the State wanted to give me unless I worked in the black market. Funny how the capitalist found a way into the USSR despite the government’s effort to outlaw it. The black market was the only way to get anything. The first night in Mesa, AZ. My husband took me to the store to buy bread. I was shocked at how big the store was and how many choices there were. I could not pick which bread because there were too many choices.

Now that I have been in America for 22 years I am shocked at how stupid the news is on my TV. They sound like the Soviet News. Bad news for America, Global warming, bad economy, the president is a dictator. I have eyes! I have ears. I know how blessed I am to live in this great country. Why are they so unhappy? The economy is great. I have gotten more money these last two years than ever before. Prosperity is everywhere yet they see doom and gloom. Please, people, stop this craziness about socialism!!! It is pure evil and leads to breadlines. Be happy you live in America and stop complaining. I kiss my husband every day because he saved me from that Hell. So turn off the Fake News and support our President. Contribute to society by working hard and we will All prosper and be happy.
