text: Oh, yes, you really got that right: democracy is way more controlling than communism!\n\nEinstein uncovered one of worst aspects of a democratic society: "Did you know the microphones on your home and cell phones can be activated to listen in on you at home?" Oh, my gosh, can you just imagine that?? Yes, definitely worse than communism!\n\nWell, did you know that in communist countries they ACTUALLY did that that -  quite a lot of people had their houses bugged with microphones - every word they were saying was being monitored. People could not trust anyone. Not even their families as the informers of the Secret Police were everywhere. The safe way was to keep your mouth shut. This unless you wanted to spend a few nights in interrogation.\n \nInterrogation wasn’t that bad. Those guys only wanted to ask you a few nice questions, just to get to know you better. Yes, they made sure they will leave you with an unforgettable experience. They played with your nerves and, ok, some people who seemed to be strong-natured individuals would often burst out crying, but those of tears of joy! I mean...wouldn’t you be more than happy knowing that you would lose your job and have a bad record? Of course you would, that would happen to you if you were lucky. You could have very well been sent to prison to be “re-educated”.
