the theory of everyone working together for good of one entity has always interested me we all know it has failed in this capitalist dominated world but id like you to just think about what might of happenned if it hadn't been a clash of civilisations, if communists had been left free to run their affairs under their own idealoligies. The reason i bring this up is that ever since ww2 until the fall of the soviet union its been capitilism vs communism and the capitalists were the victor, but if there wasn't this culture of aggression between the two ways of life could communisism flurish? or do think it would be riddled with corruption and deception, would there be the need for this when you take the elements of foreign aggression out of the equation? or would there be increased suspicion over foreign motives when every country is vigorously pursueing their nationalist agenda. i'm interested on all of your thaughts on this subject.

THe reason china is behind is because of Mao's "reforms" like the hundred flowers campaign which basically impeded China's progress in the name of communist ideology. Deng Xiao Ping was the smarter man and introduced the Socialist Market economy, and ever since then China has been moving forward. Watch, in 25 years China will be on the same level as the U.S. as far as economy goes
That is impossible, and against human nature. During our entire history, there have been conflicts between rich and poor, slaveholders and slaves, nobility and peasants.comunism is supposed to keep the gap between the rich and poor reasonable. unlike in capitalist societies and ownership societies where the gap between the rich and poor only grows with time. capitalism had a problem with slaveholders and slaves and with segregation very recently. capitalism is more susceptible to these sorts of issues than communism; as industry is privately controlled and less regulated.
