Altαir Posted October 7, 2009 Report Share Posted October 7, 2009 I thought people didn't understand this about Communism' date=' you need INCENTIVES! But Omgakitty nailed it spot on like an economist. Without incentives, the entire system falls apart. It first succeeds, but the gears rust, as it's inefficient, and it collapses sooner or later. In a perfect world, Communism works, but in a perfect world EVEN FACISM will work! That's why Obama should not inject money into the system![/quote'] Sorry, but was that directed to me? If it was, I will lol ten times over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Mousy Posted October 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 why would you lol 10 times over? I'm directing this to Communism in general. Communism has failed for the last 50 years(?) due to lack of incentives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altαir Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 Oh, okay. I would lol because you didn't detect my sarcasm, which you probably did. I don't find actual Communism to be that bad, it's just that there's no competition for the people, no incentives (as you already said). The government itself taking over Communism isn't real communism, it's just a "revised" edition. But what you say is right, the communism we know and love has failed for the last like 85-90 years. (Russia, I think, had it first) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Berserker- Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 I call America, America; and I call the United States, U.S.A. I don't know why some people didn't understand that. If someone shows me a document that says that the United States officially changed it's name to "America", I will apologize to everyone. But for now, America for me is still from Canada to Argentina, and from the United States to Brazil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pikachu Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 You people and your ideas on communism. Communism = Sharing. Get that straight in your head. If we all share' date=' the world will be a better place. With your Capitalism, people are on the streets, rummaging the garbage for food. People get low pays. No jobs. If we all turn to communism, this world will be just perfect. I am Karl Marx, and I approve of this message.[/quote'] I hate you now. >_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenny Bohner Posted October 25, 2009 Report Share Posted October 25, 2009 Okay, chief, first of all, Barack Obama's barely even a fuckin' Liberal, let alone a Socialist. Second of all, a Socialism would be a vast improvement over this sh!t hole Capitolist piece of crap. Lastly, "Communism", unless interfered with by a dictator or some other form of "government", is another word for "Utopia"; no more poverty, and a minute fraction of the crime of today! Obama, while not as right-wing as other psychoes (John McCain), is definately NOT a Socialist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, no, no, no, no, no, NO! In a Communism, you do have to work to earn your keep; it's just that you work for rations of necessities and alloted luxuries, as opposed to money. We all get the same thing, so there's no poverty; we all win. All of those Capitalist dumbfucks that claim that "My wealth doesn't make you poorer" are either terribly, horribly mis-lead, or straight-up lying, shady bastards; see, when there's greed involved, then the person with the money wants to keep gaining money, so they start a company. Good, right? NO! See, only the higher-ups get paid good wages; even though the grunt workers are a vital piece of the organization, they get paid diddly! So, is that fair? With Communism, the sales rep. and the janitor would get the same rations, as would the doctor and the teacher and the mechanic... the list goes on.

It's not like welfare (which I'm all for, I just hate that able people abuse it), YOU MUST WORK, or you starve. There'd be no poverty, except by choice.

Cyber Altair Posted October 25, 2009 Report Share Posted October 25, 2009 You won't make it work. That oil is going to go up again. Thanks to Barack Obama's stimulus. Point is: If the government puts more money into the system (the economic system)' date=' then we have more dollars chasing the same goods. So logically, prices will rise = inflation. Seeing how the economy is already in the pit, people are going to spend more, so we have EVEN MORE money into the system, which drives even MORE INFLATION. I think the government trying to spend it's way out of trouble is wrong.[/quote'] Economics 101? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I apologize if you're not a Republican; I'd just assumed. Forgive me. However, Obama isn't like you and me; he likes Capitolism. He's decidedly right-wing. I love him, but in order for a Communist state, there'd be no leader. And, you do play for Kansas City; when I was watching the Raiders play them, I saw you had, like, three receptions, so, don't give me any of that.
