I think communists have many good ideas, after all when you get down to it communism is all about equality. The problem is peoples selfishness will always work against hem in a communist system, and powers will always be abused.
In an ideal world communism would work fine and everyone would be content, but we don't live in a perfect world yet.....

yup, age old problem: communism in THEORY is fine. communism in PRACTICE is impossible. due to human nature, we are too weak, too proud, too corrupt(ible), too changeable, too selfish, etc etc etc. even those who are originally "good", and have good intentions, will fall either by the power and wealth for the few in power, OR will be killed, bribed, or threatened to do certain things for the few people in power. that is why in all communist countries, the Dictator or person in power (look at Hitler, Castro, Kim Jong il, etc) ALWAYS have the best mansions, food, money, wealth....and their people are STARVING. if u can find someone who can take that leadership position, and actually put equality into Practice, that is when communism *could* start to work. until then, communism is Extremely dangerous because there are no checks and balances, such as in Democracy; the people choose vote for their leaders, the leaders are subject to congress and other groups who have the abilty to veto or point out corruption, etc. so far i'd say Capitalism and Democracy is the closest thing we have to a "good", "equal" system.
try reading "Animal Farm"; it's a book about animals, with pigs who come up with communist ideas, and force the other animals to submit to certain rules...and in the end, of course the pigs fail and start breaking the rules that they had made...and then justified it in a way so that it was "ok"..... :)

Yes, communists have many good ideas.
1) Food, Clothing and Shelter is guaranteed to one and all.
2) Other livlihood are provided to one and all according to their
status.
3) There is no scope of private sector.
4) There is no scope of few becoming rich and rest remain poor.
5) Every body gets employment.
6) There is systematic ecnomic planning of the nation.
7) There is 0% scope of Private people indulging in defence
sector of the nation.
8) In capitalism rich become more rich and poor becomes
more poor, but in communist or socialist countries there is no
such scope.

I think that some social ideas are good. I am in favor of the new deal policys. I think that the government should provide ( as much as possable ) a level playing field on which any hard working honest person can have a chance to succeed.

They do have many good ideas. But their allegiance to persons like Castro for 47 years, 25 or so years a Brezhnev or a Mao and there by destroying whole generations of country enjoying no freedom is unacceptable.

If health care for all is good then why do they all come here for major surgeries? Hmmm? why? hmmm? tell me huh tell me tell me? As far as work goes. Did you know that under communism you don't get to decide what you want to do? Did you know the government decides for you while you are still a child? You people need to study this crap or at least look something up before you ask these completely ignorant and retarded questions.

No.
Your talking about socialism and I do not think issues like health care are an entitlement. I work for a living, I pay for my own health care and I expact the same from my fellow citizens.

I think they do have SOME good ideas, but so did Hitler. Every party has some ideas that are good... it's the big picture you have to look at in the long run.
