There’s nothing wrong with communism except that it evokes Adam Smith. There’s never been a communsit country either, they were all socialist.

What do you think?

There has never been a Socialist or a Communist Nation.
You can put a name to anything, does it make it that? Of course not.
If through ignorance I call a rose a bleubell does it change wha the rose is? no.

The USSR was the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, and, to put it frankly, did not practice communism, but rather a harsh and non democractic
socialism. The only truely communist groups are religious or, well, I dont any other term, Hippie groups who all understand the goal of communism and
practice it. Those are the true Utopias.

I would also like to point out, Adam Smith was not a Communist. In fact, his book "The Wealth of Nations" is one of the starting points in defence
of Capitalism against Communism...
In fact, this book was highly attacked by Karl Marx...

I love that, non-democratic socialism. LOL! Honestly, what does it matter whether it is a monarchy or democracy? Communism is an economic idea, not a
political structure...socialism as well.

Frosty, Communism/Socialism has in fact a lot to do with the will of the people and in turn has a lot to do with Democracy, people just don't realise
it.

well clearly there has never been a communist country,only socialist country's, communism as an ideology advocates that everyone working together to
help the community (thats a very basic version) to be a truly communist country it would essentially have no leaders because everyone would be working
to help everyone else. In order to get to this true communist utopia, the workers would have been controlled via the dictatorship of the proletariat
until such a time that the workers would be ready for this communal utopia.
This is never going to happen, all we will ever see is a lot of socialist country's speaking of the communist dream and never having no chance in
putting the dream into practice.
