stealing
Pure communism has really never worked, look at the sorry shape of North Korea, Cuba, and the former Soviet Republic. Our current economy is not pure capitalism either, its a mixed economy with some benefits of socialism and some bennefits of capitalism. Socialism is ok. Communism, which is a very EXTREME form of socialism, is not what you think it is obviously. Communism calls for a world wide revolution and not a peaceful one at that(just look at how the Soviet Union, North Korea, and Cuba became communist states)

In communism, you get what your stuck with, the status quo. Meaning you won't get a fancy TV or anything, you'll get generic crap and thats about it. The government would control all business, so sorry you can't start your own if you get an ichin to start a pizza shop. Also, money is a big problem in communism as even if your extremely skilled at whatever you do, your not going to get paid more, you'll probably receive the same pay as someone selling hot dogs out of a cart on the streets. Add to that, in communism, you don't own anything, the government owns your house, your car, everything. That would be great time huh?
