eh? Ive got nought against communism
As practiced by tribal entities in the Arctic it a highly successful model for survival. If a neighbor uses your stuff to further his resources without asking it imposes an obligation to use his stuff. It works extraordinarily well. The elders who over a lifetime have accumulated wealth (money to buy gas boats, small motors etc) are given shared catches, firewood and other usable items they are no longer always capable of doing for themselves. When such systems are brought into large population centers it is hijacked like most religions are by sycophants and abusers who use the system for wholesale theft. Do you thing that Kenneth Lay if born in Russia would not be the minister of energy today? I do. Like all models it has a deficiency, humans run it and selfish is the order of the day. Let me share a quote with you,
Stalin inherited a nation with wooden ploughs and bequeathed a empire armed with atomic weapons. How can you say he lost? The men who came after him - they lost. Not Stalin. Stalin foresaw what would happen, of course. Krushchev, Molotov, Beria, Malenkov-they thought they were hard, but he saw thru them. "After I have gone, the capitalists will drown you like blind kittens"
Robert Harris
Communism is a great system, however when it is practiced those in charge tend to send people like me to the camps immediately.
