If the gentleman would yield further. I think that the empirical evidence Is obvious worldwide. Where are these huge refugee camps and concentrations in the world today? Well. they are on the borders of Thailand. people fleeing the Communists in Southeast Asia. They are on the borders of Ethiopia. people fleeing the Communist terror there and the starvation brought on by the mismanagement of the economy by the Communists. They are on the borders of Nicaragua. as the gentleman states. Throughout the world. where Communists are seeking to coalesce their power. huge refugee camps are being built and are housing hundreds of thousands of people who have fled that kind of oppression. It is also interesting to note that where democracy is flourishing around the world that you do not have those refugee camps. The refugee camps are in those democratic countries only because of people fleeing out of Communist regim.ns. but there are no refugee camps being formulated because people are fleeing democracies and freedom around the world. they are fleeing Sovietstyle oppress.on. It seems to me yuu can offer empirical data on continent after continent of that kind.
