Communism isn't an economic system. It's a synonym for Totalitarianism
This is why I tell people I have no issue with the principles of socialism, but rather the enforcement of it at a federal level. I'm actually fairly leftist when it comes to local politics where I have a stronger degree of representation and community is like minded so I don't have to worry about it going towards a giant welfare system. Im happy to vote in favor of using LOCAL taxes for a community greenway that I do not have the resources to build on my own. Trying to play that game at the federal/state level is impossible.
And when people have more money to go around, they are more generous with that money, giving to charities and such. That's the kind of generosity that has always existed, but will go away if the commie bastards get their way.
Playing the Capitalism vs Communism vs Socialism word game in the first place is a Marxist tactic. :)
There is no such thing as "pure socialism" or "pure capitalism".
Communism isn't an economic system. It's a synonym for Totalitarianism.
Capitalism is the only economic system that exists in a free society.
No. In communist theory, upon realization of true communism, the State will naturally evaporate. (It has never happened.)
