Do you have six hours to read all the reasons? No? Well I’ll sum it up.

Communism gives you the false belief it brings equality but what it does is create two classes of people, the political class and the enslaved class. The political class can control all aspects of the enslaved class under the guise of ‘equality’.

It really is a caste type system in that once one is in its class, it can never leave. There is no motivation for productive movement. You can’t invent your way out of your class, you can’t work your way out of your class, you can’t create your way out of your class. The only way out of your class is to somehow become part of the political class, which historically shows it comes through corruption.

In a Capitalistic society, a poor child of a single mother can become President or a college drop out can create a billion dollar company in his garage. In a Capitalistic society, if you have musical talent, you can freely choose to explore a career in your talent.

On the other hand, in a Communist society, you become whatever the State deems is better for the collective whole.

Capitalism has risks that you won’t succeed, but it gives you the freedom to try.

Communism promises you ‘equality of outcome’ but that outcome is always controlled by others (the political class) and never gives you the freedom to grow. As usual, the only equality that can be guaranteed is the equality of the lowest common denominator, thus everyone is equally in poverty.

Which would you rather have, the freedom to take a chance and explore your own path or the equality of failure?

There are actually three classes in communism. The political elites, the slaves and the subhumans. The subhumans typically consist of Christians and capitalists.

That is the best summary I have read in a long time. It’s “Communism for Dummies” in 500 words or less. May I share it with some dummies?
