On the other hand I can see that there is exploitation. So it makes sense to me that Russia and China would have become communist --in order to get to the right balance. When the overlords were just too abuse, there had to be someway to push back. But the trouble is what works in one place might not work elsewhere. Just because communism was seen as solution to China's troubles in the 1900's, that does not mean that it is a good idea to conquer Taiwan and force it to be part of China's totalitarian system.
