    Yes this works :)

     No they didn't...they denied basic freedoms to the vast majority
(really all).  In USSR they taxed and coercively controlled all facets
of society (something the liberals in the U.S. would do if they
could...) ...and indeed one could be imprisoned there for even speaking
about theosophy...

     Yes...this is what happens as taxation increases!!!
