Yes. Because of Communism not having copyright laws, one of the ways in which it restricts freedom, to allow an equal chance to those who will waste it because they aren't equal, the guy who invented Tetris is not rich at all. He is now only reaping the rewards because of classic games collections being launched.

It is incredibly unfair, because he should be a very rich man. And he deserves it: His game made the Gameboy popular, and was a worldwide hit.

someone said you could get communist fashists and then quoted some guy who said: "if you're not communist by 25, you have no passion. if you're not communist after 25, you have a brain."
