                                         Communism Is Good; Except For What The Russians Did

Well i know i lost some of you all ready, but hear me out on this, the ideal of communism is everybody works for the betterment of the community. But for Americans want to own their own their own property, house, and car, “shared”not a good word. the concept of communism doesn't work in the American society because without the paycheck we work for, you don’t get the

bread, fuel, and satisfaction that you're striving for

Is my point clear? for those of you still on the fence,  I’d like to give you an example of where communism worked as intended. unfortunately, that is the problem. There hasn't been a successful communist state they either collapsed or turned into a socialist state(Wikipedia). now don’t yell at me because communism has never worked. You should yell at people and politicians because they are scum that wanted a system of currency, which kills the concept of communism . But most people will say that money is good and lovely. But it can lead to corruption and divides our nation, thats why America has  the rich, the middle class’s and poor.

Here's why russia/ U.S.S.R communism did not work: because Joesph Stalin abused the trust of the people and used the concept of communism  to take power from the people and rule. unfortunately we all know how Stalin rule ended: with a cold war and the total collapse of the U.S.S.R .

Heres is why Americans hate everything Russian and communist: No its not that “commies” are bad or evil. It's that post-WWII  politicians and the government needed an enemy to keep the American populace in a state of fear because then the government could act like they're “saving” America from an evil force, which so happens to be the “commies”. Why them? Because American and the Soviet Union were the only superpowers after WWII. had america just left them in peace. There would have peace between our two countries. Because after all we were allies in WWII.

Now, think back on it all. Communism could be a great form of government, but at the current time it serves only as a thing: for americans to think back on and be happy they are not threat to our county. or perhaps communism a threat? maby the north koreans will attack, or perhaps. they will continue to be a self sufficient country. I don’t know such things as these.
