Cause, you know, it's always worked soo well in the past...
Which past is this that you speak of? And how is the present a better option than anything at all, really?
The Soviet Union, Cuba, Vietnam. Are these countries you want us to model ourselves after?
Yes. All of those countries had more civil rights and longer life expectancy after the revolution
Oh yeah that makes sense. Because a revolution automatically means that your life expectancy increases. At this point, let's just have continuous revoltuions back to back. We'll live forever.
No, overthrowing capitalism and beginning a transition to a more rational economic system increases your life expectancy. You can literally look up graphs.
