I'm a bit younger than that... I came up in the hope of the late 70's 
and 80's.  MY negativity towards communism comes from getting involved 
with them in my late teens and early 20s, then followed on by having 
worked and gotten to know expats from communist Russia and China.  Those 
experiences are what really opened my eyes.

There is a dishonest evil to many socialist leaders who would use 
diversion and deceipt to sieze control and remove freedom from the 
people.  Those who would decry people in power only to turn into a 
stronger authoritarian power.

The older I get the more stronly I believe that people cannot be trusted 
with institutional power, and should thus be limited as much as 
reasonable on most fronts.  Even with corporatism in modern US 
government, the government isn't restricting power, but granting, 
expanding and protecting it.
