Why do so many people dislike Socialism?

You forgot Mao Zedong, Pol Pot and Fidel Castro. Not to mention Kim Il Jung; N. Korea has some PRIME real estate right now. Get yours today! Glitter

China in particular is lulzy. The government has basically accepted that communism will get them jack $hit so they convert the country to capitalism but rule it with communism so they don't lose the Mandate of Heaven. They starved tens of millions of people to death due to what was essentially miscommunication between the provincial lackeys and their masters in Beijing. I don't know what's worse, a guy like Stalin, who starves his own people on purpose in genocidal proportions, or a guy like Mao, who starves his people in genocidal proportions BY ACCIDENT.
