Actually communism isn't a government it's an economic system.  And when you say devine rule you probably mistake that for being religious facism but in places like Pakistan the Christian minority is respected and protected.

Now, I think democracy is a good system.  But understand that you can have a socialist or communist economy and still be a democracy.  

America's capatalist economy and republic government looks like a better system than it really is.  First we exploited the Indians to survive, then the African slaves, and now it's a global economy where we use our military and imperialistic powers to usurp other nations resources.

communism is part of government and the economy is a major part of a government, you just cancled out and put back in what i just said


think what you want about the US government but all i know is i think people function better when they have a choice of how much they want to make if you work/study hard you should reap the benefits of what that gets you not get what someone else who only tried half hard

Okay, well... as long as we don't exploit other countries and ethnic groups, and the top 1% doesn't have more money than the bottom 95%, then the American system isn't that bad.

Yes. If you look at the rest of his post, what he said is correct.

Communisim is a economic system.
You can have a democracy and have a communist economic system (highly unlikely, but possible)
The third part of his post is what he belives... Im not going to say it's wrong even though I don't agree with it.
