Greatest Government Ever

[anime-man10]

In your opinion, what is the greatest government ever?I would have to say Communisim with it's original ideals.The ideas of Karl Marx would have created an amazing government however, Communisim has such great ideals in it's PURE Form that it was rushed just so it could get "Out There" that there were a lot of important characteristics left out. If they had taken their time to establish Communisim as it was originally supposed to be, it would have been great. I think that the perfect government would be Democratic Communisim. Where people could elect their leaders. Another thing that makes Communisim look so bad is that many Communist leaders were insane(Stalin,Mao,Castro).The original principals and philosiphies upon which Communisim is based are very good, it's just how they are put into effect that is bad. The only problem I have with Communisim is the lack of private land ownership, because I enjoy living out in the country with a lot of land.

Communism fails because of human instinct to abuse power. Even if communism was perfectly carried out as Marx intended, it still limits a person's liberty because it disallows the free market, correct? I still need to research it more.

It seems NG has returned to the 2005 debates.

No, not at all.I am heartily against welfare and such other programs in this contry.Communisim is making everyone equal so rhat there will be no jackass upperclass and no mooching lower class. It will all be one giant middle class and as I said, I disagree about a lot of Communist ideals. Honestly, A Democratic Republic is my Favorite government but if America went into Anarchy, This is what I would want above all else, My overall favorite is a Democratic Republic.Many countries have flourished because of Communism because they have used it correctly. I will not lie, many countries have also fallen but if you weigh out what I have said, what would you choose?
