The Communist Guild

I'm in! I'm soooo in.

Everyone who says communism can't work is wrong. You just need the right people.

You would have to have the perfect person like Jesus.

Saying you need to be perfect is a lie. That's like saying you've never EVER cooperated with someone before in your life.

If you have to have the "right" people for the political system to work, then your system is flawed to begin with. The point is for the system to work across an entire country, and you aren't going to be able to fill your country with all the "right" people. In fact, even if you were able to do that, as soon as that generation has kids you'll run into problems.

True but unless you are perfect you will always disagree at some time then your system would crumble.

How would one disagreement make the whole system crumble? How can you think it would be THAT flawed.

Given some time would need to spent on the right implementation for the ideology, it could be done, and it could work.

Well, and now we know why you're not fit for communism, egoists can't become communists. And once again i just wanna say: DOES CAPTITALISM WORK?

Good thing, too.

Heh, lol. I know, just playing. But communism would work if everyone had morals.

Does anyone remember the movie K-Pax?

Well in the movie there is this guy from another planet and he is in a mental institution, claming that he is from another planet. The doctor asks about the planet and about their government. He says they have no government because every living being can determine right from wrong. If humans could do what is right, then communism would work. But since we humans are so imperfect, that could never happen.

Well, i personally think it can be done. If people are being educated and learn to share from the beginning of their lives, even the biggest egoist can become a sharer.

PS Wee, my 1000th post DS.

[Schutzstaffel]

I doubt humans were meant to be perfect, and no matter how much you or others wish they were, it would never happen.

But communism would work if everyone had morals.

The funny thing is.. people DO have morals, maybe one persons morals arn't the same as anothers but people do have them- Morality plays a big part in alot of peoples lives.

Yeah because I have enough money to live and I am not told what to do by my government as much as I would be under communism. The US is living proof that capitalism works. For communism to work everyone would have to think exactly like the leader. If you don't believe me look at history. They kill whoever is against them.
