It seems like the administration is trying to discourage travel across the border. Not just people on work visas, tourists and even citizens are reporting being detained. It's like East Germany or something.

Capitalists doing capitalism is like communism ?

This isn't capitalist doing capitalism.

It is fascist capitalist doing a dictatorship, which is eerily similar to some communist dictatorships.

Funnily enough both authoritarian communism and capitalism end up producing very similar societies - Vaclav Havel has a good insight to this in The Power of the Powerless
