Americans love to share, as long as they're not sharing something worth keeping. Communism never worked out. Capitalism managed to work out, but only because it tapped into human nature so well. It's dirty and taken advantage of, but it's the only system that works.

In the beginning,when the Mayflower came over,all the Pilgrims farming produce was placed in a single community area and divided equally,each had an equal share.Then as time went by,a summer or two,people whom had worked hard got mad at the people whom didnt work hard,but got the same share or food.So they changed it to be self sufficient.You worked hard,you got to keep more food(that you grew) you didnt work hard,you starved to death.That is our Thanksgiving story and thats how Capitalism came into being here in America.There is no free ride here!

America is not like communism.
Communism is like bad.
I don't want to work my backside off just to share it all with some laggard that won't lift a finger.
Greed is good. Greed works. It separates the willing from the unwilling.

Americans don't want to share. We want to keep what we have and not spread the wealth with the "lesser people." I heard they really like to share in Cuba.

Capitalism is voluntary sharing. We don't like forced sharing, because then there is no incentive to do well.

I think you might mean socialism to? Capitalism is FREEDOM, that's why we like it! :)
We are free to work our butt's off and reap our rewards for doing so! WHY would I share my "wealth" with a slacker, or someone who does NOT contribute to society?????????
It's bad enough my tax dollars support losers on welfare!!!!!
(I'm referring to those who do NOT "need" to be on welfare, and are "able bodied"!!!!!)

Why is communism dead? It didn't work. It was a dumb idea.
The opposite works.

If you want to move to North Korea (communist, and proud of it!), feel free to do so.
As for me, I want to run my own business one day.
