Actually, a good portion of the United States system is Socialism. In a roundabout way. We just don't go around bragging about it for some reason. I guess we like to be special and keep ourselves seperate from Europe, etc.

Communism is a twisted version of Socialism, nethier of which will ever work in thier true forms. Human nature is just too greedy.

Agreed, but neither will capitolism in its' pure form, some people will gather more and more power and we'll end up with the fuedal system again.  Once again why "ideal" systems aren't so ideal after all

Actually, wouldn't Communism work in its true form??? The whole problem is that humans are too greedy to let it reach that level. And Argon is definitely right - capitalism is a nice concept, but it will never work like it should either.

Yeah, every system would work in its "pure" form, it's just that we've never gotten as far as that...

actually no it wouldnt Argon Capitalism is impossible without government and some regulation, this was written by the man who invented the discipline of economics and wrote his first book in 1776 in Scotland.  I cant remmeber his name off the top of my head by I know capitalists love to forget that important fact. Socialism will prevail!  Lookat Sweden, it has a stronge ecnomy, and is the closest thing we have to socialism in th e modern world. Communisum is feudalism with a different twist.  Communisum will continue to fall around the world.  Democratic socialism is the way to GO!

Adam Smith. Ironically, the idealistic dream of both capitalism and marxist comunism is that man will (eventually) govern himself. It just never works out that way. I'm not sure what socialism's goal is.

The goal of socialism is to create a classless society in which everything is shared by the community. No one has more money, possesions, prestige, etc than anyone else. The closest anyone one got, in my opinion, was Old Economy Village, near Pittsburgh, PA. It was a religious, communal society in which you were provided with housing, food, and various passtimes as long as you finished your assigned chores. They didn't use money within the community, but squirreled away a fortune through the sale of wine. This they saved, intending to use it to rebuild the Temple of Jeruselum after the Second Coming of Christ. However, Christ didn't come and the community fell apart at the end of the 19th century.

Lesse, Capitalism in its pure form, no  (trust me, I have a friend who's and Objectivist, I hear Capitalism all day long).  Communism, no.  Fuedalism, no.  Fascism, no.  Imperialism, no.  Socialism is the only maybe I see.  If you could keep it going for several generations, it would become the norm, and would sustain itself.  It's just that you have to get people out of the habit of 'owning' and 'buying' things.

By the way, I believe Communism aims to create a classless society. Hence the name Communes - thats what that place in PA is. The aim of socialism is for the rich to support the poor, bringing them out of poverty and giving everyone a decent standard of living. You still have classes in socialism - hell, you NEED classes. Without poor people, inflation would spiral out of control and everyone would have no money.

Loads of it    And yes, the goal of communism is to eventually have no gov't, but the goal of socialism is such that it requires lots of gov't, constantly.  Also, if you look into capitalism, you find that it also needs gov't regulation to run smoothly, none of this laissez faire (sp?) stuff that got us into the era of the monopoly
