Will Communism work in today's world?

[manokie]

Imagine this:

If you have a country with hard working people motivated not by money, this system will still work! As long as you execute the pests and leechers, this will work perfectly in a world today where income disparity is so wide!

Anyway I understand this is very 1 sided.
Any views? :(

There're no communist countries left in the world. No, not even North Korea or Cuba, they're just dictatorships that pretend to be communists to justify their dictatorships. If Adolf Hitler wasn't so racist and offered them a better and a better deal, they'd readily be Nazis too.

That's not to say socialism is no good and unworkable, whether then or now. The distinction must be recognised and understood.

In theory, communism is a perfect system. Whatever question you throw at it, it will have an answer.

In practice, it will only work if all humans are machines devoid of all emotions and Maslow's hierarchy of needs is a bunch of bullshit.

Not in your life it won't. If given a choice to work as hard labour under the hot sun or work in comfort of air-conditioned office, which one would you choose? And no money is involved here. Whether you work hard or you lazed around, you will not be fired, do you think the company or society will progress?

Communism is rubbish. It is a day dreaming idea for the lazy. It will never work in any society. Even in the insects world like bees and ants where all working ceaselessly and majority are workers, they are serving the queen. This is not communism, this is feudalism or imperialism at best.

Communism is just another hogwash idea for the lazy few who wants to control the majority in the name of sharing and caring. Don't believe? Just look at North Korea, who is enjoying in the name of Communism? You look at history of Russia and China, who is really getting the free ride under Communism banner?

Anyone who still think Communism will work is either dumb or they are that lazy few.

No it's not. It's an unworkable system for the simple reason that it goes against almost every aspect of human nature. It doesn't work in practice and it wouldn't work in theory either.

The pap's system is the only "perfect" system around.
Any question you throw at it, they will answer and say that this system suits SG, which actually means that this system suits them.
If you question too hard, they will throw you in jail.
Perfection.
