this is what i found on the cia 'factbook' while in my politics class...
This entry gives the basic form of government. Definitions of the major governmental terms are as follows:
Anarchy - a condition of lawlessness or political disorder brought about by the absence of governmental authority.
Communism - a system of government in which the state plans and controls the economy and a single - often authoritarian - party holds power; state controls are imposed with the elimination of private ownership of property or capital while claiming to make progress toward a higher social order in which all goods are equally shared by the people (i.e., a classless society).

and under the cuban government type...
Communist state

communism will never exist in first world countries while things like this exists... how do we stop it?
is there anything we can do?
i know most of us (hopefuly) would dismiss this as lies, but what about your average everyday american (or any other country for that matter) who goes on and believes this... considering it is the cia, most people would class it as a 'reliable' source, even though its not.
