The ruling elites of the Soviet Union, called the "nomenklatura," had their own separate and superior stores where ordinary citizens were not allowed to shop, their own separate and superior medical facilities, as well as their own separate and superior living quarters, all off-limits to the masses. Everyone in communist societies addressed one another with the egalitarian term "comrade." But some comrades had the arbitrary power of life and death over other comrades. Soviet communism is now history but people who talk equality and practice elitism, who wrap their own selfishness in the mantle of idealism, and who sacrifice others on the altar to their own vision without a moment's hesitation are not only still with us but have become the norm on the left. They don't have nearly the power that the Soviet dictatorship had. But they use whatever power they do have in the same spirit. The green ideology of today, like the red ideology of the past, takes it for granted that other people do not have the same rights as the new nomenklatura. " Read it all to see how the libs are very much like communists. <a href="http://www.townhall.com/columnists/column.aspx?UrlTitle=the_new_nomenklatura&ns=ThomasSowell&dt=09/06/2006&page=2" target="_blank">http://www.townhall.com/column ists/column.aspx?UrlTitle=the_new_nomenklatura&ns=ThomasSowell&dt=09/06/2006&page=2</a>
