Do you think it would be really cool if we lived under communism?

Question

Communism doesn't also create a dictatorship, the government won't have unlimited power.

Answer 1

Nice false flag question -- keep up the conservative work soldier

Answer 2

THE TRUTH IS . . . We are good as we are! The only thing that will help our nation presently and for the future is to maintain our goodness. Other nations will follow suit, if we can do just that much! And we will be recognized and loved by all of the other nations for the good that we do on the international scene.

AND AS TO THE IRAQ WAR . . . we need to follow the letter of the law. Anyone who violated the law should be punished, prosecuted within the letter of the law. Doing so would set into motion a series of things, which would put this world aright (upright and in our favor) once again!

Answer 3

It doesn't create dictatorship or give the gov't unlimited power?

There have been numerous nations that tried Communism. Can you name even one where the above statement was true?

Answer 4

Really cool, you say, .....JJ why don't you move to a communist country...don't encourage Americans on this site to support you.
No....this is why....

In a speech last week, Rudy Giuliani said that while the Soviet Union and China could be deterred during the cold war, Iran can't be. The Soviet and Chinese regimes had a "residual rationality," he explained. Stalin and Mao---who casually ordered the deaths of millions of their OWN PEOPLE, fomented insurgencies and revolutions, and starved whole regions that opposed them---were rational folk. But not Ahmadinejad, who has done what that compares? One of the bizarre twists of the current Iran hysteria is that conservatives have become surprisingly charitable about two of history's greatest mass murderers.

If I had to choose whom to describe as a madman, North Korea's Kim Jong II or Ahmadinejad, I do not think there is really any contest. A decade ago, Kim Jong II allowed a famine to kill 2 million of his own people, forcing the others to survive by eating grass, while he imported gallons of expensive French wine.

He has sold nuclear technology to other rogue states and threatened his neighbors with test-firings of rockets and missiles. Yet the United States will be participating in international relief efforts to Pyongyang worth billions of dollars.

Answer 5

Boy Grace is right, you are out there. I will give it to you at least you don't hide your contempt.

I don't think people really understand what communism is, so if you explained it to them their opinion will change. In a communist society if you are a doctor don't expect to get paid big bucks for your hard work. You are just like everyone else.

So no, I don't think it would be cool. If I work hard to get where I am at, my progress should not be divided among the unproductive of society. Do I feel sorry for them, to some extent yes. But in America you have the opportunity to succeed. There are programs to help people to, if you WANT to utilize them.

Seeing a doctor, lawyer, celebrity, or executive driving in a nice car or living in a big house doesn't make me feel angry at them or make me think that they are the evil of society. Seeing them makes me try a lot harder, and feel a little mad at myself for missed opportunities.

Answer 6

No. It would be terrible. I have read pretty literature which focuses on the cooperative nature of communism. Although there has never been any pure long term communism to base this on, anything that comes close lead to over exploitation of common goods, corruption by those in power trying to obtain scarce resources and the killing off of ideals and innovations that our future depends on.

Answer 7

how old are you jj?

communism has the same defect that america has presently.
The people in power usually are or become corrupt. It easily becomes a dictatorship.

i do think we will evolve towards this as an ideal, but we are too selfish, too corrupt at this stage in our evolution.

i will see you in a couple lives from now and we will be much closer to the vision you have...

this lifetime is more about teaching and self-purification

Answer 8

I think it would be cool if the people who thought it would be cool would go ahead and move to Russia or China or Venezuela. Don't forget to write.

Answer 9

Why would anyone except liberal democrats want to live under a concept that has failed worldwide...?

Answer 10

give this poser to Indian communist couple Karats.
