That sounds more like socialism from what I understand. Communism is more like you and your friends work on a farm, live off what you produce, all do some work, but you are not paid different or receive more or less food/accommodation/luxuries than each other. You are all equal.
Now if one of you gets ill, or decides to slack off then that person will still be supported. If everyone slacks off then the society is f'd.
- mememachine 10y agoYep. Communism fails because people arent equal. same reason socialism introduces inefficiency
- tekni5 10y agoIt's more like everything is owned by society, people do what they can based on their ability & all their needs are met. The initial concept is very theoretical, there are many gaps left.
