I still doubt Phil got the message.

No Phil did not get the message. And it was lost on him that if he tried to do his show in his favorite communist country (at that time), within a week he would be munching on rotten cabbage in a Siberian gulag.

No. Phil was always of the mindset that if someone was a little bit better off, it was only at the expense of someone else who would be a little worse off.

Classic zero-sum-game assumption. It never ceases to amaze me how short-sighted and stupid socialists are.
