    My family’s early 1900s experience with Russia did involve that. I’m no lover of capitalism either but most starvation happens for political reasons not supply. Evil people in power don’t care regardless of the economic system.

      I agree that evil people regardless of ideologies are the reason. But then why would marxism with its goal of equality be the sole cause for death. Cuba is a good example, trump openly said he wants the people of cuba to starve through his sanctions on oil. Is the socialist leadership to blame or the aggresor?
