I've read history books. They spill out all kinds of information about countries which have gone through revolution that fairy tales leve out. I understand the wonderful ideas behind communism. I also understand the wonderful ways it's affected the people who adopted it for their government. And, personally, despite the glorious humanitarianism of it all, communism seems to have turned out to be a dud idea.Yes, Bakunin wrote about his wishes for people to die and countries to go bankrupt. :rolleyes2
And I am not going to comment on the rest of your post, just tell you you have probably never read Marx or Fromm.
Anybody can set out and try it again and see if they're up to the task of making it work. Good Luck! It'll be a first.
Personally, now that capitalism exists, I see no point. In America, all you have to do to be succesful is work hard.And you don't need a new country. The only problem is people who don't want to work or are incapable of it. And, frankly, I don't care about them. That's why I'm republican, mostly. Because I don't give a damn about the worthless people. I was poor once, and I utilized the capitalism in our government to alter the situation. So anybody who is poor, whiny, thinks he's being taxed too high, thinks that he should get more benefits from the government for doing nothing.... Screw him. Been there, done that. The US is perfect.
And if terrorists want to end this utopia, then I want to end them. Innocents and all. Flush the freaking Middle East down the toilet. They haven't stopped fighting in centuries. I'd end it.
