Communism sucks. A lot. Take a look at North Korea, and how they're starving due to a mix of communism and dictator ship.
Something dumb 14 year olds think is da shit, even though it’s failed everywhere it’s been introduced. It littleraly is one of the dumbest ideas ever. You could go to law school and be the best lawyer ever, and a lowly cashier would make the same amount of money as you. Also, it fails because the government becomes greedy and that’s something that will never stop in the government
“I’m so glad communism’s been introduced!” 1 year later.... “Someone shoot me, please!”
Communism is an ideology that tries to achieve the Communist Society: a classless, moneyless, stateless society with common distribution of means of production. The idea of Communism belongs to Karl Marx, who described is a utopia where consumer goods are given to people based on their needs. As you probably expected, establishing it is nearly impossible in our reality, so every state that tried these theories has only achieved Socialism. In this definition I described Marxism, there are many other forms of Communism.
Karl Marx and Frederick Engles described Communism in their book, "The Communist Manifesto" in 1848.
A utopian idea for common wealth which relies on an idealized society. In practice it succumbs to corruption and promotes oligarchy. When it fails, capitalism inevitably takes over providing a more practical and efficient allocation of resources.
