If it was so great then why did you need to build fences and walls with armed guards to keep people in?

I thought the only difference between a socialist and a communist is that socialist can vote.

How about Germany, France, or Japan?

They got pummeled into rubble and got rebuilt better than before, and are now economic powerhouses.

Speaking of mass starvations... What exactly did they teach you about the Great Famine in Ukraine?

The thing with all these utopian ideals, like Democracy, Socialism, Communism is that they can all work on a SMALL SCALE if the inhabitants so choose to follow them.

By small scale, I mean a smaller town at largest. One where you could walk in to any town and immediately know 80% of the people there.

But as the population gets bigger, so do the chances of screwing someone out of something.

Like take for example America, let's say a complete abortion ban was passed onto the constitution. The difference between screwing 150 million people out of the ability to choose to have an abortion could be 1 vote.

If I recall, Marxism was based on an evolution...

Industrialism---Capitalism----Socialism----Communism

Problem is they skipped a few important steps along the way.
