Joe knows this guy from East Germany…

… and tells us about him.

A few choice quotes:

He hates the communists. “Communism makes people lazy. Yah!”

And this is most telling:

“Joe”, he said, “People complain about how unequal things are with the rich executives in a capitalist society. But it’s just the same under communism–it’s the politically connected that have the money and the people that aren’t connected don’t have anything. I know. I lived it. Communism, it’s very bad.”
