So in theory, communism sounds like it could work. Its also pretty similiar to the way a union works.
So why is it that communists are so bad?defstarsteve - 4-29-2008 at 11:44 AM
becasue it involves people and by nature people are greedy and selfish and will take every advantage to fuck someone else over
none of which would work in communism...BDx13 - 4-29-2008 at 03:24 PM
Marge: I really think this is a bad idea.
Homer: Marge, I agree with you -- in theory. In theory, communism works. In theory.CR83 - 4-29-2008 at 03:37 PM

Perfect answer. Bottome line- Greed.defstarsteve - 4-29-2008 at 03:43 PM
I used to believe in communism when I was younger, and still had some faith in humanity
and it could work with the right people working together...
but then somebody is going to sleep with someone elses wife, or goat, or whatever...
and jealousy will ensue, and it all falls apart.

Greed is a basic animal instinct. People always assume it isn't but it is. It's just so often linked with money.Siczine.com - 4-29-2008 at 05:34 PM

Plus, when they fuck it all up, you've only got one guy to kill, and the rest will tread softly after you stick the first guy's head on a pole.
I keep trying to drive the point home to people, that the parliamentary system of government was approved by the monarchy, because it is completely
fucking impotent as a means of accomplishing anything. We just end up with a bunch of fucking morons arguing for the sake of it, and pointing fingers
like little kids on a playground, fighting amongst themselves. Doesn't anybody read Machiavelli anymore?Siczine.com - 4-29-2008 at 05:58 PM

Greed, power & money ruin it, nobody's ever truly experienced social communism on this planet. External capitalist influence is simply too great for
communism to work and people's inherit ability to fuck things up.
