The Soviet Union, Cuba, Vietnam. Are these countries you want us to model ourselves after?

Yes. All of those countries had more civil rights and longer life expectancy after the revolution

Oh yeah that makes sense. Because a revolution automatically means that your life expectancy increases. At this point, let's just have continuous revoltuions back to back. We'll live forever.

No, overthrowing capitalism and beginning a transition to a more rational economic system increases your life expectancy. You can literally look up graphs.
