So if you like free software like I do you should support true communism since its about creating things for the common good instead of using them to make money such as spybubble who exploit you by knowing that alot of us need it then by making us all pay alot annually to use their software which could be very important to many people.
The people you see developing the effective free anti-virus programs and other programs such as TOR for non-profit are an example of REAL/TRUE communism because they are doing it for your good/for the common good instead of for profit.
So if you would like even more free software and people such as described above in life which is an example then you should support true communism. There is nothing wrong with it. |

It seems implausible that putting a hundred-thousand capitalists together will form a communist state.
Not only that, but communism hasn't had a very good track record for success. |

| Incase somebody says "Move to Russia" I would like to say USSR was never truly communist. They allowed companies such as pepsi to exist in their state and are just like China today. |

yes because the programmers who make software don't need basic human needs just make them give away all their hard work for free, screw logic or decency. |

I hate to burst your bubble, but power is all anybody really wants. Over themselves, over their future, over others...
No amount of common decency can rid humanity of its defining feature. |

| For example you get free education in real communism because everybody needs it so it and the resources if used for making it don't cost anything. |

| You wouldn't really need power in a society cause the most hardest working guy will probably become the most famous, most loved and popular and gain lots of respect. |

You don't understand, no one is equal when it comes to economy. (Not physically, I mean economic wise.) No one will have the same amount of money.
Oh, and if money meant nothing; then that would mean supplies of items in stock markets would drop drastically because no one would need money. (The "Money shouldn't be made" version.) You also can't forget if to much money is printed, money would be worthless because of how much people have. (The "More money should be printed" version.) |

I'm talking about in a communist society we will get even more of the non-profit software. Not the current society, supplies come from people bringing it in because they are educated that they do it for the good of others and not for money.
As for the greedy people they can leave the society and get out if they don't like it while the ones who want to do things for the good of others can stay. |

yes but the wolf depends completely on the other wolves (generally speaking, not true for many solitaries) humans don't depend completely on each other in their natural state, and any society trying to change that will not work because of how unnatural it is.

That will never happen. Like I said earlier, people crave power. It's genetic -- at age two, we start to want power over our lives. Ergo, the "terrible twos".
Nothing as flimsy as a Utopian desire can undo millions of years of development. To say that power is nothing means that everything you do is moot of both impact and consequence.
>Greedy people can leave
Okay. And we'll take our patented technology with us. Have fun. |

So that, ultimately, we could be the only ones who reap the benefits of commerce. If the goods wont sell -- and they wont, because communism -- there's no market. |
