fun berlin wall fact most people who sneaked over to west berlin ended up sneaking back in to east berlin. Turns out that people who are getting no respect in socialism because they have no valueable skills don't have such a great time in capitalism either. People who might have had a better life in the west like doctors had too much to loose to take a risk like that
you aren't going to become a millionaire if you're broke and have no marketable skills now
Do you have a good source on this?
btw, another fun fact: common "victims of the Berlin Wall" tallies include people killed by West Berlin guards despite blaming it all on the East and the Soviets.
Another fun fact: over the four decades of the wall’s existence, the GDR killed ~140 people trying to scale it. 140 people over 4 decades.
The Israelis killed nearly TWICE that number of peaceful protestors just from 2018-19 (the Great March of Return).
The US probably had individual months where Obama or Trump killed that many innocent people with drones.
