Philosophy- Communism

Communism: Communism is a revolutionary socialist movement to create a classless, money less, and stateless social order structured upon common ownership of the means of production, as well as social, political, and economical ideology that aims at the establishment of this social order. It began in the 19th century by a man named Karl Marx. I personally do not agree with communism, and don't believe it can be achieved. A form of it can be achieved but not full communism. People are naturally to greedy and selfish, they want more then their peers and want to be looked up to which cannot be achieved in a communist state. Anyone that knows anything besides communism would feel deprived of the things they could have. Most people don't want to be seen as an equal to everyone around them, they want something to stand out. This also is not possible in a communist state. People are naturally lazy as well. In a communist state it's possible to do absolutely nothing and still receive the same thing all your neighbors get. Whether you work or not you will still receive what everyone else receives. A lot of people would take advantage of that and not do any work. It has been attempted numerous times and has not once proved to work, that says something. Culture would be very dull in a communist state and for the most part not enjoyable. People are different and therefore there needs to be a society that allows for variety rather than complete equality
