They could take everything, but why would they? There is no motive in my idea.

UnLoving NewbieYay it's finally my turn to say this to appa:
COMMIE COMMUNIST COMMUNISM-LOVING COMMUNIST
That felt good XP
Ya know, I actually see why they call you that. (Not meant offensively) -
UnLoving NewbieBecause they're greedy. It's human nature.
No money = everything is free = raging greed -
It's okay. I'm starting to accept it, actually.
There's nothing wrong with communism (the "communism" we usually hear about with the Soviet Union and the Cold War and whatnot is actually Stalinism, which I do not support in any way or fashion). -
UnLoving NewbieI forgot this in my post:
Money can be looked at as just paper.
Or it can be looked at as a symbol of hard work.
A system that constrains greed.
A way to live. -
UnLoving NewbieBe proud to be a communist :) There's nothing wrong with it
-
That was very well written and you brought across a strong point. Money can destroy us....it already has destroyed many.
Although, my view tends to sway further to the view UnLOving has. If everything were free there is the risk that citizens would become incredibly lazy and completely dependant on others. I don't believe food and clothes should simply be handed across to people on a golden platter.
If there was no money chaos could break free. -
"I advocate communism, but that doesn't make me a communist! ...does it?"
-Me
As for the argument...human nature? Humans automatically default to a sort of "communism" at points. Heck, if you want a source, Marx and Engels covered a stage called "primitive communism" which arose long before the "greedy capitalism" stage.
Greed is caused by environmental and social motives. My solution to this is the same thing that I've been saying, although it looks like complete circular logic, I assure you it isn't. -
UnLoving NewbieYes I agree with ange :)
(Ange your avatar is so cute =^-^=)
Appa:
If everything's free, people will take everything. Am I not correct?
