chris27292729: In your post you urged people to ask you questions,i did,and your answer was the above.If you know so much about communism/democracy in your country,have a look at your own fellow citizens laziness,before attacking others people citizens for laziness.

I don't urge anyone to do anything. And it seems I touched a weak point as you react in such a dull way. We Bulgarians got lazy because of communism, it made even Eastern Germans lazy. We still recover from that. And you Greeks have always been lazy. That's why you like so much socialism. But it's good also to take money from Western countries, right? laugh
Good bye and good luck to you and your country!

Yes they said here the same but don't forget that you kept the private property and here everything was "people's". This is the core of evil here, no matter if we call it socialism or communism.

check out my previous post

Boban1: you have the same people behind every political establishment
" aristocracy "
they may hang different pictures on the wall and bow to different flags ,but they have a common interest

bottom line is ... we never really had communism anywhere ...same as anarchism ...but we spread stories about it,scare the children before sleep etc etc etc


besides there is a difference between personal property and private property

I do recall the Russians building a wall to consolidate the territory they 'liberated' in WWII, invading Czechoslovakia and Hungary, Afghanistan and, I do recall the cold war where the Soviet doctrine was to roll over NATO Forces in successive waves of armored fronts and reach the Atlantic in 6 days after carrying out tactical nuclear strikes on major support centers and cities.

It all seems pretty benign to the uninformed now I suppose but, it was a real threat as we now know.

http://www.spiegel.de/international/germany/0,1518,687920-2,00.html:

The moment the command was issued, everything was to go extremely rapidly:

In the north, the Polish army was to press ahead and reach the Jutland Peninsula near Denmark within six days;
The southwestern front (reinforced by Czech units) was to march towards the southern German state of Bavaria;
It was up to the "Central Front," supported by Soviet Guard divisions, to break across the border at Helmstedt and advance on the Ruhr region and Lorraine in France (see map).

During the first 90 minutes, this ground assault would have been accompanied by a hail of conventional and nuclear warheads aimed at thousands of predetermined targets.

NATO facilities, airfields, communications centers, government offices, power plants and traffic junctions as far as the Rhine River would have been reduced to ashes. Currently accessible campaign maps of the Warsaw Pact have red circles above Antwerp, Amsterdam, Bremen, Cuxhaven, Emden and Munich.

Then the tanks would have rolled out. "The attacking soldiers were supposed to reach the banks of the Rhine before any of them showed symptoms of radiation sickness," says Polish historian Pawel Piotrowski. The plan was then to relieve these radiation-contaminated troops with units of the "Second Strategic Squadron." NATO officials called this the "Polish-Soviet steamroller."

The reason for charging you high interest is because you're such a risky investment. If you were like the Germans and worked properly at proper jobs you'd find it easier to borrow, simple.

And I still reckon we'll lose out for giving you the chance, but time will tell.

Oh,i know why charging us high interests,others in this thread don,t know and pretend the reason is, Greeks being lazy,while the reasons are,the politicians took too long restracturing the economy,because of the political cost in both main ruling parties.-We shall overcome,i don't think the Euro € countries will appreciate a chain reaction on the € ,if Greece fails.-

You may call them the same but they are a lot different. Once communism is in, it's in for the long haul. A far cry from a democratic society where leaders can be voted out of power and the system changed by the people through their representatives.

As for the comment you left out ""bottom line is ... we never really had communism anywhere ...same as anarchism ...but we spread stories about it,scare the children before sleep etc etc etc "" one would have to say that is true however, we also have never had a democracy either. When referring to communism and democracy we refer to the systems that are applying those two principals the best they can as in North Korea, the former Soviet Union, Cuba, China etc and the US, Canada, France, Britain etc.

From this, we can easily see the the 'communist' countries are horror gulags when compared to the 'democratic' ones and we hardly ""spread stories about it,scare the children before sleep etc etc etc"" in error but rather speak the truth.

carlosweb10: It´s said it is against any private property.However, archeology, anthropoly state humans lived in communism in the past. Could communism be part of a future?


Humanity never lived in "Communism" as described by Marx.

Tribal cultures lived collectively but they were far far far from being remotely similar to Marxism.

Collectivism can work when a culture is already strongly unified and the people's needs, goals, and opinions are pretty much the same. But it can't work where they are diverse.

Well, if every communist government has proven to be corrupt without a system of accountability, yes, the ideology is flawed.

In order for democratic republic to become communist, all that's necessary is for enough dumbasses to vote it into existence. But in order for communism to be replaced by democracy, it requires a revolution and much bloodshed.

Blues63: Well, communal living and communism, as we know them are clearly different. Introduce a monetised economy and an industrialised society, it is destined to fail owing to ambition.





Eliminate the money systems and you have the basic Gene Roddenberry world of the future...
All systems fail; some of the failures are catastrophic and fatal.
Human beings are fallible. We are the primary cause of all system failures, nothing hard to understand.
How many here have read the novel K Pax on which the film of that name is bases; in the novel, more so than in the film, Sproot(?) describes how life is on his planet...food for thought...grin
