39. Even if what you say is true,
communism only seems to be an attractive option for those countries whose rulers wish to have total control. While communism is just an economic system, it might as well be a synonyme for totalitarianism. Besides, you can only have a working communist system if everyone involved is willing to practicaly work for free. Think about it- what's the point in being a neurologist if you get paid the same as a janitor? Only the most altruistic people would continue to do their jobs of their own free will.
