Communism

Since its been a long time since we have reviewed types of governments, I'd like to go over the Soviet Union's form of government: Communism. Communism's major goal is to create a one world society where all people have the same social status and are all equal. One of the founders of communism was Karl Marx, and Communism is often referred to as Marxism. Soviet Union Communism wasn't truly full-blown communism, as in a true communistic society there is no government and everything is arranged by committees. Furthermore, people are given roles in society rather than professions which rotate in cycles. THere is no money in true communism, and everything you need is in a communal warehouse. In theory, it would seem to work, but practical extreme communism has yet to succeed.

  1. Vladimir Lenin was also a visionary for Communism. Lenin was the kind individual who mixed his own ideas into Communism and shared it with the public, he started the October Revolution, overthrew the Russian Provisional Government, and turned Russia Communist. Hooray for Communism!
