Communism

Communism looks good on paper, you make x amount of shit and you get the shit you need in return. Eventually one reaches "Shit-topia" where every schmuck has what they need and the gov't disappears. Any system that gets rid of government sounds pretty good. Unfortunately communism doesn't work.

There are people in the world with "A" type personalities (guess what the A stands for). Hitler, Bush, the Kennedy's, and Stalin are prime examples of A personalities, or people who think all the shit should belong to them and whatever scraps are left over can be doled out to the proles. Stalin, though sporting a fine mustache, made Hitler look like a pansy when it came to being grabby and killing innocent people (he never took criticism very well) and he is responsible for corrupting communism and overcrowding in the gulag.

Bottom line is communism, while a great idea, won't work because too many people in the world are shit-grubbers and won't play well with others, or are NASCAR stupid and don't get the concept .
