Don’t start insulting ‘my group’ until you’ve lived in the society. Don’t make me wip out some asian on your arse for this.
Its all too true about the political apptitude not proffecional apptitude that can set you higher than the others in communism. Not always but sometimes.
But, the incitive (again in theory) first there is a few perks for being a doctor givien by the goverment then they assume that people who want to be doctors ot for the money but for the fact that you are saving lives and helping others, as well as working conditions suck when you are a fryier.
I mean, even now; how many people go to become workers JUST for the money? If some do, they drop out pretty fast.
Other benifets of communism is; everyone is taken care of, medicare, education etc… its all the same for everyone. And in theory there is no conflict between classes, between the upper and the middle or lower class. (Portelatrian and Bourgoise)
… THis should be posted in Ordered if you want good answers…
Where is the pink commie upuaut when you need him! :sure:
Mod should move this to Ordered, this is a discussion not to be taken lightly to me.:sure:

in theory there is no difference between upper and middle class. But there was definatly difference between members of the communist party and the rest of the ppl.
Anyway, though ppl bash it communism did many good things for russia, in times of the tsars russia had high illiteracy, no good central command since the tsar mostly looked out for their own wallet instead of the country and little industry.
Under communism russia went from under 50% literacy to almost 100 %, there was a bloom in industry, and healthcare was greatly improved.
…why work harder than anyone else if there is no reward for it ???
one of the greatest flaws in communism imo, this also created the problem with ppl having to stand in line for ages at shops because they were empty.

You forgot to mention that population was also cut by 50%. The insane industrialisation was to sudden and done in such a wrong way.
Communism (or Leninism) in russia was 50% good and 50% bad…
YEs we were a super-power under it. Good healthcare, good education and good economy (good as in better that under tsar). But so many people died in the process its not funny. So many liberties we never new. So much bs over they years… sigh
LOL RelandR
Yeah, everyone watchout… for all we know RelandR can be a viet-nam vet… :sure:
indeed russianbeer…
i know ther was quite a decrease in population, but the guy that started the topic asked to focus on the good side so i did (mostly)…
there were a lot of things wrong with communism, for a fact they developped a whole new system for science/history so it would fit with marxistic beliefs…
the whole darwinistic evolution theory was considered wrong because it was in conflict with the “everybody is equal” idea.
You are right bout the 50% good and 50% bad, for every good there is a bad… but is the same with every system. Democracy is flawed in some aspects to.

There are some really good responses by several of the members here.
I was going to say that, but Phil just did … Communism works on paper, but it would never succeed in practice because of 1 major issue, and that’s the nature of man.
Face it - everyone wants to have just a little bit more than the next guy
Where did you hear that in Communism that dont beleive the darwin theories… I dont think thats true…
Show me a source.
