Description

A lot of Americans think they have it bad.  There's a shortage of a luxury good.  Their cell phone isn't brand new any more.  You know, real problems.  Pretty much on the same level as your country's government assassinating your family because you're not loyal enough, if you ask the average college student.  For people who actually experienced totalitarianism, an old cell phone doesn't seem so bad.  Ric moved to this country and put his life on the line for it because he has something most of us don't: perspective.  Now you can gain some perspective too, by reading his book.  Or you can just dismiss it as fake and cry about Target being out of Funko Pops.  That seems to be a popular thing to do.
