"Communism is neither an ec[onomic] or a pol[itical] system ---it is a form of insanity--- a temporary aberration which will one day disappear from the earth because it is contrary to human nature. I wonder how much more misery it will cause before it disappears."
---Ronald Reagan, Reagan, In His Own Hand (written 1975, collected 2001)
