Communism in general is far worse than capitalism

First of all, I accept. I would like to point out that we are debating the TWO EXTREMES of economy, pure Capitalism and pure Communism, and I need to show how Communism is at least 30% (worse being less than 50%, far worse being less than 20%, but I'm gracious) as good as Capitalism. I'll get right to it.ARGUMENTS AGAINST COMMUNISM REBUTTAL.Communism is the repression of the massesNo, Communism is the representation of the masses in terms of economy. By definition,Communism: A political theory derived from Karl Marx, advocating class war and leading to a society in which all property is publicly owned and each person works and is paid according to their abilities and needshttp://www.google.com... Communism has always brought famine, war and fear to the people it was initially made to guard.Famine: The only times I recall where Communism led to famine was the "Five year plan" enacted by the Soviet Union and the general oppression of Chinese states. Neither of these instances were by direct fault of Communism, but rather the terrible condition of Russia's economy and the fact that the Chinese government is oppressive in nature, and almost always has been. War: I think this is funny. Communism was actually so effective, Capitalist states had to take action to stop it from spreading. In itself it doesn't lead to war. It takes two to fight. Fear: This is oppression and American propaganda. If you still believe your claim, please, expand and site your sources.time and time again history has showed us that a people who want to climb out of the ditch of poverty are best off using capitalism to do so.Cite your sources. As Ludwig Von Mises proved, pure communism is all but impossible.You have to expand and cite your sources. You aren't talking common knowledge.Communism may have good intentions, but in the real world intentions mean nothing all that matters is the pure and simple results of a system.Communism works in a perfect world. Nothing else does. If we ever want to obtain a perfect world, we can't keep running around worrying about the economy and exploitation and "social reform". The longer the USA, or any other capitalist nation, is around the longer our progress toward unity will be hindered.ARGUMENTS FOR CAPITALISM REBUTTAL.Capitalism has brought freedom, low prices, equality, peace, wealth, prosperity, less poor people than the amounts found in communist and socialist nations, and far far far more production than could ever be achieved by a communist or socialist state. My opponent has made so many claims in a single sentence, I am fatigued looking at it. Never mind don't read that.Freedom & Equality: Nowhere in the definition of Capitalism do people get freedom and equality. They get it from democracy and social reform. Social reform being small implementations of Socialism, which Communism is the extreme of.Low Prices, Wealth, and prosperity: Wrong. Monopolies are a counter example to this. True, for a while they might lower prices to a point where their competition cannot compete, then proceed to buy them out, but only then to jack up the prices sky high. And without social reform, which is a small implementation of Socialism, they can continue exploiting people until maybe one day a humanitarian inherits the trust and breaks it up, in which case someone else will just do the same thing. So instead of everyone getting equal chances at fortune, the people who start with the most capital typically get the most money in their lives, should they chose to spend it to exploit the poor, which some will definitely do.Poverty & Production: I need a source to refute.Now before you hopefully respond, I would like to add, that the current system failures in the USA are most certainly not a product of capitalism, but a product of corporatism. Corporatism is the use and steering of the government by private companies, that is not what capitalism is. True capitalism would mean a complete separation of government control over means of products, true capitalism would mean near everything was privately owned, and true competition could exist.This has nothing to do with this debate. But still, there is no reason Corporatism can't occur in a pure Capitalist state either, in fact, it DID happen in the years proceeding the Progressive Era. [1] However, this cannot happen in Communism, because the wealth is split equally.I believe I have confirmed that pure Communism is at least 30% (if not much more) as good as Capitalism.Vote CON.[1] http://en.wikipedia.org...
