Whistleblowing IT Director Fired By FL State Attorney
An anonymous reader writes "Ben Kruidbos, the IT director for the Florida State Attorney's Office who'd spoken up when important cellphone evidence he'd extracted from Trayvon Martin's cellphone was withheld by the state from the defense, was fired by messenger at 7:30 PM Friday, after closing arguments in the Zimmerman case. He was told that he could not be 'trusted to set foot in this office,' and that he was being fired for incompetence. Kruidbos had received a merit pay raise earlier this year. The firing letter also blames him for consulting a lawyer, an obvious sign of evil."
1) US actually always had more resources than the soviet in pretty much everything.
2) You confuse Communism with Socialism. When we talk Socialism today we usually refer to Communist Socialism, which is a synonym to Communism, or Social Democracy, which has nothing to do with Authoritarianism, but we forget Socialism encompass far more doutrines, Nazism and Facism, for example are types of Socialisms (despite the unwillingness of some in accepting it mostly due to ignorance).
That said USSR was communist, and it didn't work because communist theory is inherently flawed, not because no one implemented it right yet.
