Communism leads to destruction of will and harms all touched by it. I have been to China three times and met many people there who all HATE communism and communist government. The majority population in China absolutely hate the leftists in America as well, because they remind them of their own communist government, and they see them doing the same things their own government does.
What does that tell you? Did you know that the majority of Chinese people in China support Trump because he also despises communism and socialism? When Trump does things that leftists here claim harmed China, or the Chinese government's goals, they cheered Trump's actions with great joy? They did, and they do.
What does that tell you about communism?

So you implement communism, and it works great under one guy. What about the next guy, or the guy after him?
And then, how would you stop it when the system eventually turned against the people?
I said I was a socialist not a communist. To repeat what I said I believe government has a role in addressing the excesses of laissez faire capitalism. The problems with our country are NOT rocket science. The billionaires pay the lobbyists to force the politicians to pass legislation creating cartels and monopolies in exchange for campaign financing.
We have communism in this country and a single party rule by the lobbyists. The problem is the communism we have is NOT in the worker's favor. What we have is corporation communism which only serves the billionaires and fat-cats.
Obviously you think our current system of laissez faire capitalism is an end-all be-all perfect system. Obviously you okay with the corporations gouging the consumer while using data from the Bureau of Labor and Statistics to price fix wages. I am not.
Contrary to your right wing ideology, the facts simply do not match your right wing delusions:
Purchasing Power of the Consumer Dollar
You can use derogatory labels all you want. But in the end money talks and everything you post is pure BS.

So how come so many Capitalists are hypocrites by hopping in bed with Communist China?
So you think we have communism in this country, but it’s not the right kind of communism ... epic fail...reds always seem to think that of only we do this it that it will finally be the right kind of communism... and let’s just forget the part where you said you’re not communist just socialist ...
financing. We have communism in this country and a single party rule by the lobbyists. The problem is the communism we have is NOT in the worker's favor. What we have is corporation communism which only serves the billionaires and fat-cats.

Wow, I just learned I’ve had at least 10x the amount of orgasms that a normal person has in a lifetime. Life for me is either really, really good or I need some serious help. So confused now.

As in socialism, communism has the propensity for some to be slackers where the many work hard towards a goal and a few game the system. Do you agree or not ?? Capitalism is all based on productivity. Make more, sell more, get paid more. Of course these are simple examples and in practice each is more involved.
