Having lived under communist government for half of my life, I know that this utterly disgusting ideology will never work!. Communism attempts a thorough control of human body and mind, and ultimately submits every individual to serve and die for it!. All individual traits, hopes, beliefs, and personalities must be erased and every citizen must undergo scrupulous unanimity!. Personal endeavor must be suppressed and all energy must be dedicated in collectivistic sacrifice!. To implement such ideology requires brutal manipulation of masses, while every individual is systematically raped and subjected!. Communism did not believe in uniqueness, failed to understand complex behavior of society while misjudged allocation economical resources for its ultimate goal, the control of the world!. It believed in classless society, but their founder living in 19th century, failed to understand, that humans evolved to have leadership and family, not to live for utopist society!. Mass starvation and systematic decimation of farmers always followed EVERY communist society (Russia, China) followed by liquidation of literate masses!. Communists only need uneducated classes for easier control and manipulation!. Each failure of communism everywhere was always rationalized by leftist apologists that the system was never truly communist, and another attempt must be taken to make it work!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

Not EXACTLY one communist state!.!.!.!.

Marx actually called Communism's ultimate end, 'the withering away of the state' - In other words, not that there would be only one communist state, but that states themselves did not exist!. What would that look like!? Kind of like an anarchic utopia - not anarchic in the sense of violent, but in that people would co-operate out of innate conscience!. This is what Christianity and other religions - prior to Marx - called communism (eg!., the Bible states all the apostles lived together in perfect communism, sharing all in common!.)

Believe it or not, Anarchism (as described above) is a seriously-discussed political concept!. John Lennon referred to it in his famous song, 'Imagine!.' (quote: "Imagine there's not countries, I wonder if you can!.!.!.")

More seriously, one of the proponents of this was Kropotkin, a Russian thinker who influenced Marx!. TheSoviets sought something similar to anarchy called anarcho-syndicalism, in which workers' collectives made the decisions for society!. (Ok, such was the theory; though not really the practice!.) Though this was still a structured society, the key principle behind anarchism was preserved; which was that decisions were made through agreement - not coercion!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Of course!. Our brave comrades in the Democratic party who are pushing for socialist reforms like universal health care and government 'oversight' in a freemarket society think that kind of government is just great!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

No economic philosophy would work in its entirely pure manner!. Not capitalism, socialism, communism, etc!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
