Communism good or bad?
Communism is perfect on paper. But not in practice, no matter how "perfect" the dictator is.
If we are talking about a perfect communism community, with the dictator having complete power, the doctor and the digger will not have the same education. Because they did not have a choice in what they will become. The government assigns everything: from who gets what job, to how much food will be used.
Another point why communism will not work is because, us human tends to be lazy. If person A and B gets the same wage no matter how much he/she works, why should both of them work any harder? No incentive in daily work will not benefit the society. Worse, eventually person A or B will discover that they will get away doing barely any work, say 1 hour in their 8 hours day, and still get the same amount of food like everyone else. That is when the real problem comes up.
I think the reason why communism didn't take off is because no body wants to be equal they want to have a higher standard of living than every one else which is why the competitive nature of capitalism took supremacy of the world's majority. I remember during history class, i was kept wondering why communism never succeeded despite having great ideologies compared to those of democracy aside from bad leaders and dictators and all ,I mean it seems like a good idea but I think its that the world didn't want equally. If you think about it there was always some kind of monarchy at some point in the world's history, someone was always better than someone else. The ideals posed by communism were radically different from any form of living that the world had ever known and change isn't easily accepted and communism was rejected as the world's standard of living and continued to embrace hierarchy which has now changed from monarchy to capitalism, everyone can become their own king or queen after striving hard enough. But knigs and queens aren't completely gone though; presidents, prime ministers, governers, all the same thing they just don't inherit the title by blood anymore.
The world is always progressing and major turning points tend bring about revolutions just like the recent one in Thailand, wars and the like. We are all apart of it doing something, whether it is getting involved in its movements or just sitting back and do nothing but watch the shit hit the fan. Me? I'm just watching this stuff much safer than touching it, I think the world is going in one direction and ain't nothing gonna stop it, you just have to wonder why things didn't go the other way?
The reason why am i saying this is because just a simple nuclear weapon test by Stalinist North Korea could trigger such a big response worldwide.
