Why is it the leftist response to the abysmal failure of their economic ideology, no matter how many examples present themselves around the world, is "well that's only because we didn't do enough of it!"? A variant of this response after the collapse of the Soviet bloc was "they didn't have the right people in power". Funny that leftism's contemporary advocates are always, presumably, the "right people" to pull it off. And maybe fill a few mass graves on the way, of course.
