Communism is a bad form of government.

Contention 1. In a communist society, people will be motivated to help others. "The impulse to share wealth and material amongst the community, to support all, leaving none behind, is one of the purest mankind can experience. It is not merely possible – it is a demonstration of the progress of our species to a finer, more humane state of being." [2] Since when are people always motivated to help others? Why does crime exist then? Sure, some are willing to volunteer time and be nice to each other, but what motivates them too? What motivates? And not everyone just FEELS like being nice, with some if they don't get any percieved benefit to themselves they won't do anything. Contention 2. The communist perspective on collective ownership of property is appropriate. "A principal 20th century liberal theorists, John Rawls, originated the idea of a the "veil of ignorance". The idea is that, imagining we all had no idea how we would "come out of the womb" and whether we would be "advantaged or disadvantaged", what kind of social contract would we construct. We would want to construct one in which we minimized the risks to ourselves if we happened to get the "short-end of the stick". This is why a degree of "equality of outcome" is important. Communism and socialism recognize these ideas." [3] Benjamin, one of our idolized founding fathers once said "All property, indeed, except the savage's temporary cabin, his bow, his matchcoat and other little Acquisitions absolutely necessary for his Subsistence, seems to me to be the creature of public Convention. Hence, the public has the rights of regulating Descents, and all other Conveyances of Property, and even of limiting the quantity and uses of it. All the property that is necessary to a man is his natural Right, which none may justly deprive him of, but all Property superfluous to such Purposes is the property of the Public who, by their Laws have created it and who may, by other Laws dispose of it." With a ruler that's not aware of anything that happens or doesn't care to do anything about it - it simply doesn't work. Think of Louis the 16th in Paris, the government was in ruins and he was an epic failure! Many people ARE naturally SELFISH. Particularly rulers with no one allowed to object to their power. Again, this just doesn't work!!!!! One of the large influences on the U.S.'s government was Jean-Jacques Rousseau. He explained that "The first man who, having fenced off a plot of land, thought of saying, 'This is mine' and found people simple enough to believe him was the real founder of civil society. How many crimes, wars, murders, how many miseries and horrors might the human race had been spared by the one who, upon pulling up the stakes or filling in the ditch, had shouted to his fellow men: 'Beware of listening to this imposter; you are lost if you forget the fruits of the earth belong to all and that the earth belongs to no one." [4] Don't forget all the curelty that goes on by the full-powered EMPEROR. For example, a democracy does a FAR better job at fairness, you get free speech, for example. Simply put, a communist government is NOT one that works at all.
