Communism / socialism / capitalism - comparison

Do slovenčiny to nedávam, lebo my vieme, čo to všetko je, ale oni nie 🙂

Communism (and socialism) will never work. There should be some government regulation to make sure that no company or corporation has too much control over an industry, but not to the extent that the government controls everything. The government shouldn't be telling you what you should or shouldn't be doing (again to an extent). I believe in limited censorship, meaning that there is censorship, but little of it. Meaning that if you want to say that the government sucks...you can do so. If you run a TV show, you can do whatever you want on it, as long as a viewer is informed on the content.

As for communism there are even more reasons why it doesn't work.

Number one, there is no incentive to work. Since everybody are equal, and everybody earns the same amount of money, what incentive is there to work? If you can earn the same amount as a doctor, as truck driving...is there really a reason to go to college and get a degree when you can earn the same dropping out of high school and truck driving?

We can see it also in erepublic. If doesn't matter how good worker I am (because I have noting from my work, just commune has benefit) I can easily forget to work, or ask for food (wellness will go down then). Why should I try to find the best economy possibilities at the world for running my own profitable business, if all this would do somebody in commune. I can read just forum or news instead of finding better economical solutions, and let others to make business instead of me (so in communism must be very little good businessman). Why should I work harder to get house ??? My wellness is not my problem, it is problem of commune, so I do not need house... if commune need my wellness high they would give me one 😃. If there is a bad businessman, who is making lose, how can I tell him true ?? I can complain on him just in forum, because there is not competition and I am not able to show him how can run business a good manager - comparison - competition which is common in capitalism.

Number two.
Complete government control never works, just look at what happened to Berlin. They had to build a wall to keep people in, and many people risked their lives to get to capitalism and out of communism. On the contrary, the United States government has to build a wall to keep people out, coming here because of democracy and capitalism. It really tells you that people tend to prefer capitalism and the ability to earn money over communism and government control.

A current day comparison of the Berlin example is North Korea. Not only is North Korea communist, but it is controlled by a luny psychopath (IMHO). The North Koreans are branwashed to believe word for word everything that the leader says, and worship him like a God. There is a certian way that you have to take a photo of "The Great Leader" and he can do nothing wrong. Homes of North Koreans have no family pictures, but pictures of Kim Jung Ill and his father. The North Koreans have no Internet, and all the TV stations are controlled by the government, so the government can manipulate the news and tell the residents whatever they want them to hear. Border crossings are similar to the Berlin wall, consisting of electric fences and minefields. The few places where you can cross safely are guarded by north Korean forces who are instructed to shoot anybody trying to cross, even fellow guards. The few people that do escape get their family (including extended family) killed.

now look again into erepublic.com
Why the Slovakian communist are here ? Why they are not reallife Slovaks?? Because nobody at the erep world want communism. Nobody like them so they must emigrate from their motherland and find little country, which they can takeover for their mad purposes and ideas.
Why Russia, mother of communism have mainly capitalism in erepublik.com ?? 😃 Why every not communist party is voting for capitalism, in spite of the fact, that these parties have political different purposes, they all vote against communism 🙂





This is all my opinion so feel free to disagree with it, just provide an answer why you disagree.



And why I like more socialism then communism ??
Socialism and communism are ideological doctrines that have many similarities as well as many differences. It is difficult to discern the true differences between socialism and communism, as various societies have tried different types of both systems in myriad forms, and many ideologues with different agendas have defined both systems in biased terms. Some main differences, however, can still be identified.

One difference between socialism and communism is that socialism is mainly an economic system, while communism is both an economic and a political system. As an economic system, socialism seeks to manage the economy through deliberate and collective social control. Communism, however, seeks to manage both the economy and the society by ensuring that property is owned collectively and that control over the distribution of property is centralized in order to achieve both classlessness and statelessness. Both socialism and communism are similar in that they seek to prevent the ill effects that are sometimes produced by capitalism.

Both socialism and communism are based on the principle that the goods and services produced in an economy should be owned publicly and controlled and planned by a centralized organization. However, socialism asserts that the distribution should take place according to the amount of individuals' production efforts, while communism asserts that that goods and services should be distributed among the populace according to individuals' needs.

Another difference between socialism and communism is that communists assert that both capitalism and private ownership of means of production must be done away with as soon as possible in order to make sure a classless society, the communist ideal, is formed. Socialists, however, see capitalism as a possible part of the ideal state and believe that socialism can exist in a capitalist society. In fact, one of the ideas of socialism is that everyone within the society will benefit from capitalism as much as possible as long as the capitalism is controlled somehow by a centralized planning system.

Finally, another difference between socialism and communism is centered on who controls the structure of economy. Where socialism generally aims to have as many people as possible influence how the economy works, communism seeks to concentrate that number into a smaller amount.





Capitalism is not the best system at the world, but nobody think out something better than capitalism !!
