Communism Pros and Cons

Communism Cons

1) Impersonal government will put people in the wrong jobs

2) People will become unsatisfied with their jobs

3.) Possible overlap of jobs

4) Possible lack of manual labor jobs

5) Possible bitterness over people getting a job that other people want with no way for them to get them.

6) Lack of incentive to do work.

7) Who gets picked to work in government? They would probably not be fit for the job...well it cant get much worse.

8) People faking sicknesses and other things to get money.

9) How much money will be taken from the peoples rations when the country goes to war?

10) Who will be chosen as generals/soldiers? Pacifists? People with no killer instincts?

11)Huge Profits by government?

12) What about people being assigned to bigger houses than others?

13) If somebody desires to be an artist/musician then what will they do?

14) skilled doctors?

15) If somebody is sick and has no family or friends to care for them and needs it...we...draw straws and hope to get the average sized one? A government lottery?

16) What if somebody needs a certain $$$ and the government only gives them half of what they need...like auto insurance?

17) national criseses(sp?)....how much would the people have had to suffer if America was communist during 9/11.

Communism Pros


1) Everyone would be equal

2) Old people would be covered

3) We can bail eachother out


We should tackle these one at a time, please....Add to the Pros, because I am pretty dang biased on this matter.
The main issues that would deter me are the impersonal government controlling the communist state...I mean, they identify us with numbers...not very personal. And How would a personal government be possible? I just want to see some pro communist opinions on it.

The right to abolish it

I am sick of partisan politics. I am tired of politicians who do not vote for what they believe, but vote to stay in office. These power hungry douchebags have been running our country like crap. We need to stop this insanity. Screw this form of representive democracy. In this day it does not work, we need to make it a form of democracy where the people can do what the PEOPLE want. I do not trust politicians, and am sick of it.



That to secure these rights [to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness], governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed; that, whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it, and to institute a new government, laying its foundations on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness.



What does this amendment mean? This right is bullcrap. There is no way that we the people will be able overthrow the government, even with words.

America's Pastime

So the MLB is heading into the pre-playoff madness, and I want to know who you guys think is going to come out on top. The Dodgers have been sliding, and the Yankees are back on top of their divisions. My team is the Rockies, and I am psyched that they are doing good again this year. AND this year it doesnt look like a fluke like it was 2 years ago.
