The facade that was the communist societies began crumbling the day that communists came to power -- anywhere. For all their condemnations of capitalism, they either missed or hid away the horrific truth: That 'capital' still exists if not in money then in politics, close behind political is the capital one can wield in physical force.@ gambit:
in communist societies there were always some that were more equal then the rest
This is why political leaders in communist countries always cultivate close relationships with the military. Some have more of this capital than others. The common man, the ones the communists always claimed to care so much about, have the least of both political and military capital assets.
