How many millions would starve just because of the loss of Farmfresh?

Do you live in a rural location?

You could be right though. As far as I know communism has never been adopted by a nation as educated or as wealthy as the US. I'm willing to give it a try (though the entire right will undoubtedly close their ears as soon as they hear the dirty word).

Every communist system has been corrupt and always bred dictators, but if a state that was already educated, wealthy and transparent adopted it then it could feasibly work.
