““We can’t expect the American People to jump from Capitalism to Communism, but we can assist their elected leaders in giving them small doses of Socialism, until they awaken one day to find that they have Communism.” Nikita Khrushchev””
Neither capitalists or communists want a world in which everyone is equal. Capitalists recognize that people will make different amounts of effort, and that this will inevitably lead to differing levels of success. But they also believe that everyone has the right to succeed and achieve to the highest levels, based on their efforts and talents, irrespective of where they start from.
Communists, on the other hand, believe in equality of the masses, under those who control the state. They believe in a system in which one cannot differentiate themselves by their efforts, but only by their service to the state, or their connections to those who control the state. It’s the ultimate manifestation of stature based on ‘who you know, not what you know’. In this type of system the elites are never challenged by the masses. It’s a perfect set up for the all too common pathetic narcissists who are attracted to politics, worldwide.
