The problem people seem to have with communism is that they think that China and Russia are the epitomy of Communism, and that all communist states must be like them. There cannot be a truly communist society because communism has very little economics figured into it, it's more of a moral guidline and command structure.
Socialist Communism on the other hand, would be a fine choice for government, seeing as how in socialism, the money never really belongs to the people, it's all government controlled, and every year, the government takes what it needs to run, and then splits it amongst the working populace.
The idea behind Communism is that everything is shared, and by everything I mean the basic things you need; housing, food, clothes, and a job. Sure, luxuries aren't shared, but they aren't unattainable as you still get paid for your job, in the form of food, a place to stay, and clothes to keep you warm. You want something extra, you do extra work for it. I'm not seeing a problem with this logic, people, however, being the lazy, greedy, self-obsessed morons that we are, do see a problem with this.
Another common misconcpetion about communism is that "You can't vote in a Communist society." Uh, bull----? Russia, the entire time it was communist held elections, sure, they may have been rigged, but they still had them. Hell, even Castro holds elections (which are also rigged, but not as bad, seeing as how in Cuba, it's not as bad as we Americans would like to think *coughcoughpropagandacough*).
But look at every other form of government, Democracy for example. Hitler took over Germany, because his party had won a majority in the Reichstag, was appointed to Chancellorship, and further abused the democratic process to appoint himself dictator.
Hell, Bush even being in office is an example of the corruption rampant in democracy, and the "Homeland Security Act" is a Hitler-esque law stripping citizens of even their most basic rights protected under the constitution (before you even complain to me about my statements, you might want to read the Homeland Security Act and then you'll see what I mean). Sneak-And-Peak searches are a fine example of something that Hitler would've instituted had there been necessity for it.
Every government has it's pitfalls, and every government has it's good points. Communism, in my opinion, is the only basis for goverment that could actually lead to a Utopian society.
Then again, I think the middle east should be cleared out, turned into an Autonomous Military State, and anyone who wants to fight a war, should have to buy the soldiers, guns, tanks, jets, and whathaveyou from said Autonomous Military State. Then again, I also firmly believe that California needs to be nuked off the face of the planet, so take what I say however you want...
