A lot (and I ight even say most) of the hate communism gets is from people looking at dictatorships and calling it communism.
I think it's pretty great. Capitalism isnt much better, honestly.
It fails though because people naturally just dont wanna share. It's why it broke down the first time and why people have to be "forced" into doing it now, and why it's unrealistic to expect it to work in the future unless something is persuading people to do it (whether it is force, the greater good, robot overlords, whatever.)
Everyone talks about how "awful" Cuba is blah blah commies, but they have some of the highest doctor to people populations in the world, an amazing literacy rate, very lowe absolute poverty, and thier school grades arent bad either. I know this from a Cuban who was interviewed for my Sociology class. |
Haha, have you been to Cuba? I have. Everything is crumbling. The GOVERNMENT REPORTED poverty rates are low. The fact is virtually everybody there lives in poverty except the maids in hotels (who earn more than the doctors).

You've lived there or "been" there, because im simply repeating something ive heard from someonw lived there a long time along with things i learned in Geography and Sociology class. Everywhere is crumbling. I never said it was perfect either way.
