He never mentions Venezuala or Cuba either.

Socialism works great if the nations natural resources can be shared with the population, for example oil in Norway, but as soon as everyone gets used to the freebies and the price drops, suddenly people start going hungry. There limited building business and innovating and it really hinders the entrepreneurial spirit and competition to keep prices low, because the state subsidizes state business, which keeps products low quality, and forces the people to buy from limited companies. Communism is really just sugar to get people to believe in the idea of utopia that everything will be fair, but it's always meant to be a lie, because the elite always take control and dominate the people. By the time communist ideologically supporters accept the promise, it's too late to reverse. This is why large banks support communism. It's a guaranteed loan that the people will work to pay off. They key is making people content with being poor, which is what all dictators strive for, and why in China they limit the information that can reach the people. The last thing they want is for people to wake up, because they have the numbers.
Still don't understand why so many atheists still believe in Marxism, when it's always proven to be a scam.
Do you campaign against the handouts in Alaska, where each resident got $1900 in 2014? Why are you posting online instead of protesting in the streets?
That's right, because you have the luxury and comfort to tell someone else that they don't need a helping hand. You have the luxury and comfort of not sleeping in the streets, not worrying where you'll get your next meal, not worrying if you're going to be ganked in the middle of the night because some other homeless asshole thinks you have three quarters in your pocket.
Sharing is not "Communism". Sharing is simple decency.
You don't want to partake of that sort of decency? Okay. Then stop driving on the roads -- because my tax dollars help finance those, and I don't want to share them with an asshole who won't return the thought. Stop using the running water in your house -- the piping bringing it there is run by your municipal government. Holy Lenin, Batman, that's Communism!1!!
