The fact is that things got a lot worse for a whole lot of people after communism fell. Also, while people in eastern Europe got help from US, places like Kazakhstan and the rest of other former republics never got any help and things have never recovered there. Of course, once again you don’t give a shit about other people. You just care about you.

What’s unfair is to say that it’s ok for others to suffer through life for your benefit. That’s what capitalism is, and that’s what you cheer.
