[QUOTE=imasillypiggy;26108200]that would need money, something a resourceless country would not have[/QUOTE] The country can make money via exports If they have no natural resources whatsoever they can export labor like China and Korea
[QUOTE=imasillypiggy;26108200]that would need money, something a resourceless country would not have, also would stop the point of communism[/QUOTE] So we're talking about a country with absolutely no money or exportable goods? I was talking about how capitalism features importing as a replacement for natural resources and exporting for a source of money, not communism.

[QUOTE=gnoob;26107581]Are we talking Nazi Fascism? Because that would have been decent living for the average Aryan, provided you mind your own business. Pretty much just a capitalist society with a dictator I guess...[/QUOTE] Yeah and everyone else is screwed what an awesome quality of life, all those Kens and Barbies walking around.

Comm-u-nism :ussr:
I rather live in Hitler's society, as long as your not jewish or an "enemy to the state" you could manage a somewhat comfortable life. Stalin's society sucked for everyone.
uh what the fuck people fascism is not capitalist by any means, it uses a centralized and planned economy very dumb posts in this thread
[QUOTE=cheesedelux;26105447]Um, no. Lazy bastards who won't work (Not can't work) only get bare minimum without 'luxury'. Otherwise there is greater reward for greater work done or skill. You seem to be thinking this means everybody only gets what they need to live and no more, makes me miss Bad Reading. And Spetzaz, your definitions of Left and Right are far too general/incorrect. Consider 'Left' and 'Right' in the USA, 'Right' is pretty much the opposite of being for progress and technology, but to be fair that's Conservatism, or the desire to keep society as it is/was - doesn't sound much like progress?[/QUOTE] No, I'm just confused with what you guys consider to be need...
One thing history has proven us is that planned economies can be extremely useful.
facism is the best kill all the reds
Evidently many people in this thread seem to think that fascism = 1984, Nazi Germany, etc. This is not the case at all. Do not try to bash people for choosing it when you don't know much about it, let alone communism which again, many people here do not have a decent grasp of. Either way, I'd feel much better living in a fascist state.
Have any of you read The Giver? Well yeah, thats what perfect communism is. With the exception of The Giver and Receiver.
Hitler, Stalin and Mussolini all abused democracy to reach totalitarianism
The problem with the 'communist'-sucieties through histories are that they all have had leaders. Every suciety that human has created has had some kind of leader, it's natural to us and communism will only work if the leader is fully trustable and true.
There's almost nothing worse than Fascism, so Communism is alright... Sadly it probably can't be done right.
So I have to choose either Communist Russia or Nazi Germany? Er, I'm gonna have to go with Nazi Germany. Don't like the anti-semeticism, racism, or homophobia though. Nazi Germany did have the best military during World War II, but they bit off more then they could chew and got overwhelmed.

Neither Germany nor Russia have been brought into this poll.
