East Germany: Before and After

Posted herein are a series of before-and-after photos of East Germany, the first set taken in the years 1990-1991, the second taken from 2001-2003.

If anyone cares to extol the virtues of a communist society, then look upon its works, and despair.  What better evidence that capitalism, even the faltering version of the proto-Socialist European Union, works?  What would Walter Duranty say?


Check out all of them.

Comments are welcome and discussion is open and encouraged.

I will delete comments that are profane and ad hominem, though I will often include profane words when they are part of an original quote (I will not play games with little asterisks; we know what the word is).

I will also delete comments that link to a commercial site.
