Well yes, but I thought you might want to research on your own, but if you insist.

Pull up a chair and come gather ye round as I ye the tale of a man. A man with a strong social conscience who noticed the vast inequalities that the capitalist system built into society where the majority of people toiled for the good of a few, where the majority were oppressed used, abused and discarded by the wealthy that infested the land. A man by the name of Karl Marx.
A man who thought dared to think society would be better if instead of everyone working to line the pockets of a few fat bastards who leached off the workers, that everyone should work for the good of all with a fair wage for a fair days work, where the man at the top should not get in a morning on the golf course what his workers earned in lifetime of hard toil.
Communism is about society working for the best interests of everyone and not unevenly supporting a class of uber wealthy crooks. American society has a similar distribution of wealth to pre-revolutionary france and people seem to accept this unfairness for some reason.
The world has never seen a real communist government. They have all been on the Soviet model which exchanged one sort of overlord for another which is not real communism.

Actually, I was thinking more along the lines of you sharing your experiences as a committed communist. Karl Marx was a lazy bum with mental issues who mooched off his working buddy, Friedrich Engels. This caused contention between the two later on.
