And just when is the glorious Soviet Union expected to crush the imperialist US and lead the proletariat to a utopia in this history of yours?

You know, that's a good question. I'm hoping sooner rather than later, but I suspect I shall be disappointed.

Keynes and Marx were featured, but not Friedman or Hayek? Replacing the word capitalist is silly, though, as are a few other things.

It's not really surprising. Don't most economist regard Austrian/Chicago-school thoughts the way philosophers regard Ayn Rand?

Yeah, thank goodness for Obama and his balanced budget ways, and the glorious Democrats who gave us social security and medicare, along with other entitlements that absolutely dominate the federal budget.

No, sorry, our federal budget is dominated by defense spending. Try again.
