Of course Republicans hate educators, they require taxation, and lead to a lack of ignorance. Republicans thrive on ignorance. How else will they get voters if everybody's educated?I am 62 years old, and a retired professor. Freedom leads to decadence.Living standards actually fell apart in Russia when switching to capitalism.Koba - sralin sold the Jews to GESTAPO (USSR and Nazis were allies ) . whats funny here, that 99% Muscovite don't want to know about it , they believe that WW2 stated in 1941

Stalin’s NKVD and Hitler’s Gestapo cooperated closely even before Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact

Perhaps the only thing that outrages Russian defenders of Stalin more than the obvious parallels between his regime and Hitler’s is any reference to the alliance the two dictators formed in 1939 with the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, one that opened the way to war in Europe and lasted until Hitler turned on his former ally in June 1941.
But now there may be something even more offensive to such defenders of Stalin and his system: the discovery of documents which confirm that Stalin’s NKVD cooperated closely with the Gestapo well before the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact was signed and that may have paved the way to its signature.
Dmitry Volchek of Radio Svoboda reports that documents recently released from the archives of the KGB offices in Ukraine show that “the NKVD handed over to the Gestapo refugees from Germany who had hoped to find in the USSR salvation from Hitler.”
Beginning well before 1939 and continuing right up to the German invasion, the Soviet secret police sent “hundreds” of refugees to their imprisonment, torture and in many cases death at the hands of the Gestapo. At first, it involved mostly German citizens; but later, this “cooperation” expanded to include others as well.
German historian Wilhelm Mensing has set up a website, “The NKVD and the Gestapo” at nkwd-und-gestapo.de, devoted to the fate of those who fled Hitler’s Germany only to be arrested in the USSR, sent to the GULAG or handed back to the Nazis. [Mensing is also the author of Von der Ruhr in den GULAG (2001) among other books.]
The documents from Ukraine are especially important for two reasons:
Volchek asked Mensing about similarities between the NKVD and the Gestapo. The German historian answered that they shared “the specific qualities of the secret police. The Gestapo exterminated the Jewish population in occupied countries: this was its unique feature.” On the other hand, “the number of victims of the NKVD was apparently larger.”"
- In East Germany, any reference to this practice was prohibited; and there are few documents about it in Stasi files, Mensing says;
- And in Russia, the secret police files that presumably do contain documents about it remain classified and thus inaccessible to researchers.

Pretty good book here:
Soviets better than Russia today?
Oh....my bad: I assumed you were an adult.
This may be better:
And now for an explanation of freedom vs. socialism, on a level our Liberal pals might understand.
The Dog and the Wolf
A gaunt Wolf was almost dead with hunger when he happened to meet a House-dog who was passing by. "Ah, Cousin," said the Dog. "I knew how it would be; your irregular life will soon be the ruin of you. Why do you not work steadily as I do, and get your food regularly given to you?"
"I would have no objection," said the Wolf, "if I could only get a place."
"I will easily arrange that for you," said the Dog; "come with me to my master and you shall share my work."
So the Wolf and the Dog went towards the town together. On the way there the Wolf noticed that the hair on a certain part of the Dog's neck was very much worn away, so he asked him how that had come about.
"Oh, it is nothing," said the Dog. "That is only the place where the collar is put on at night to keep me chained up; it chafes a bit, but one soon gets used to it."
"Is that all?" said the Wolf. "Then good-bye to you, Master Dog."
Better starve free than be a fat slave.
And you prove that everything we on the Right have said about universities and the professors therein, is true.
You are clearly mentally deficient, indoctrinated, and a danger to the next generation.
