Throughout the world, we see that wherever socialists took power, genocide followed. In the USSR, up to 30 million people were murdered by Communists. Tens of millions were slaughtered in China. Two million in Vietnam. A million and a half in Cambodia. Up to three and a half million people in North Korea. In Afghanistan upon Communist take-over, at least 12,000 people were killed in Kabul alone in the first few months.

The reason why genocides occur under a socialist form of economics is very simple. For one, politicians have total power over the masses. They can tell you where to live, what to buy â?? and most importantly, you depend on them for your subsistence because you can only work for the government. In a market economy, if a worker is mistreated or underpaid, he can leave and work for someone else â?? or start his own business. Not so in a communist economy. You are totally dependent on politicians.

Two, any time a personâ??s property is taken away from him, he will resist. Some will complain passively, others will resist in an active manner, refusing the politiciansâ?? dictates. To impose their will, politicians must use force â?? which is exactly what happened in the USSR, China, Vietnam, North Korea, Cambodia, Afghanistan and all the other countries where politicians were given total economic power over the people.

According to R.J. Rummel, professor emeritus of political science and Nobel Peace Prize finalist, Marxist regimes have murdered nearly 110 million people from 1917 to 1987. Even in democracies the Communists have to blow up railway lines, murder political opponents and subvert development at any cost.
