Why support communism/socialism?

I like communism, because people are so afraid of it. Fear=power ;)

But I guess people are getting tired of a capitalist society...

some people are idealistic.

Why support the republican party?

People believe in causes.

I like owning what I actually own, not sharing its ownership with the government.

Intriguing logic. :P 

i support democracy becsaue it gives everyone a chance, although some do have to work harder.

Communism is a failed idea. if a doctor is paid as much as a painter nobodys gonna want to be a doctor(atleast not try to be a good one) pure communism works great in theory but not in practice. and socialism? you gotta be joking.

In other words, monetary rewards are greater than the rewards of benefitting the life of an individual.

I support socialism. Socialist economic programs can be used to help with many problems within socioty that other wise go ignored an a continued problem......most importantly, crime and poverty.....

Communism and Socialism are two different things.

Communism shares the common wealth with everyone in the society, Socialism shares the publicly owned economy with the government.

A lot of people don't realize that Japan is a Socialist government. Their trades, exports, imports, and small business are overseen by the government, restricting certain free-minded ideas among cerain business, mainly entertainment and technological.

and how exactly does communism not promote motivation? I'm sure you'll say communism gives everybody an equal share regardless of occupation, but, I hate to tell you this, but that's nothing but a myth.

It's not a matter of working harder when you are never given the oppertunity to advance that others do not.yoshi-lnex

[QUOTE="yoshi-lnex"]It's not a matter of working harder when you are never given the oppertunity to advance that others do not.quiglythegreat

many people are born into a level of desperation in which the idea that they cannot advance no matter what they do is driven into them over and over again for the span of their early years, and that idea sticks with them.

In combination with poverty, poor parents, poor schools and the idea that socioty does not want to succeed, most people within this situation are doomed for failure.

No one would work more than they had to if they didn't think they could get ahead.

No one would do anything if they didn't have to, from seekign higher education to working overtime.

And personally I wouldn't want to be in a market system that would put the works of albert einstein on the same level paris hilton.

Please take your idiotic marxist propaganda elsewhere.
