One day people woke up and said that they had had it and the commie governments were no more. There wasn't any violence to speak of. It was really amazing.
And then there was mass starvation, followed by a rampant resurgence in State-established theism. The collapse of worldwide communism had to happen, but too bad how it left so many people with nothing good to build on from there.
Communism is an ideology, and that doesn't leave you much by which to compare US libertarianism - libertarianism is exactly what happens after people look at their government and then say "Fuck it all!" They are led by a loose collaboration of corporate interests which profit from war, not a government. They steal my meager income to feed their armies, they don't tax me!
Mr. Hanky loves you!
