Default Are things better?

A Pew poll asked 43,000 people in 38 countries whether things are
better now than they were 50 years ago, 37% of Americans said yes.
The top of the box was Vietnam where 88% said things were better now.
My question was what about the 12% of Vietnamese who preferred things
there in 1967. Communism must really suck if that many people would
rather be bombed and shot at every day than be a commie.
