My therapist made a comment about how China is a failed socialist experiment because they have 2-3 year olds working in factories. I responded "So we've been told." She looks at me like I'm crazy. (Not a great look for a therapist) "I've not seen any evidence of that."

"Because they're such a closed country!"

"Which means you have no evidence to your point either?"

"Well, missionaries... anyway!"
