Thanks - article is totally relevant.

For those that would deign to engage the commies in this country in actual discussion or debate about this subject (I won't):

It has been postulated & fictionalized before that it could happen in a disarmed USA, where the feral bands - rather than the official gov't - are the ones that bend the populace to their will through terror. Venezuela serves as a post-20th century reminder of where motives of despots go when exercising their "wisdom" of knowing what's best for the peasants.
