Their system only works when they abandon Communist principles and allow private ownership.

I actually believe that they are realizing that now. Look at China and Vietnam, they are silently converting from communism to capitalism. North Korea is just plain ignorant because of its leadership who is probably living a dream. Cuba, is just awaiting the death of Fidel Castro to convert from communism.

A) It isn't Norht Vietnam, it is Vietnam now. America LOST the Vietnam war and North and South Vietnam were united under a Communist government.
B) There will always be the peasants who will be given crap that will be so appealed by romanticized versions of communist, socialsit and Marxist theories that their pursuit for equality will overcome previous fact that Communism does not work in practice. Those are the Communist states in the world today, but Communism will fall in those countries and rise in new countries, it is just they way things work.

Russia is a good example of that the communism does not work. There is no need for a civil war to overthrow the communist governments. The system will die by itself someday as it did in Russia

Technically speaking, China has become a world power, probably about to turn into a world super power, so their system works in my opinion, although i do not condone it. As for the others, the dictators do not want to give up their positions of power and therefore will not ever say that their system does not work.

Until another Ronald Reagan stares down another Mikhail Gorbachev in another Reykjavik someday and forces the issue. Unfortunately, leaders the caliber of the Gipper are a rarity...especially in today's toxic political environment.

As long as their people are afraid to support themselves and demand that their government do it for them.
