    The Berlin Wall came down, the Soviet Union was in its death throes, and China was quietly starting down the capitalist road.

    So much for workers' paradises. And before any true Marxists lurking around here start bleating that they were not true examples of Marxism (i.e. workers' control of the means of production as the OP advocated) please produce an example of a small-c communist state that has not turned around and fed on itself
