I present - Exhibit A:

The Trabant Was an Awful Car Made By Communists

"Doug DeMuro reviews the Trabant"

LINK

0-60 time? "It doesn't exist"

2 cylinder, 2 stroke (mix oil/gas - smokes like hell), 26 horsepower.

No fuel gauge - a dipstick (under the hood).

No turn signal cancel.


video is quite entertaining.

One of the comments: "Even fine German Engineering could not succeed under Socialism."

Your economic understanding is seriously lacking, for starters, and you have the gall to call others brainwashed.

Take the L, do a lap around the block, and try again.

I would add prisons. Private prisons are immoral on multiple levels.

You could make the argument healthcare should be as well, but that discussion usually causes this place to melt down on both sides.




Yeah on the surface the first reaction is healthcare shouldn't be for profit. But how do you make advancements in technology and facilities, how do you fund research?
