Idea of goverment.

[Usrea]

Hello,

I would like to ask the Revleft community how my thoughts of communism compare to Marxist, Leninist, and combination of both or any similar ideologies. And what political system best describes it.

I feel that wealth of the country should taken as tax and redistributed as such. You will receive an even percentage of money while the rest goes to improving life, security, and other topics. This will only apply to the people who agree to work, if they refuse they are not contributing to society, and will have to depend on their own ability to live. Of course exceptions will be present. The major cooperations will still exist, but will be on par with the side street vendor. This government will be a republic, with the "leaders" being chosen on their priority to send what %'age of money to what area. Human rights will be respected; Freedom of religion, speech, transportation, etc. Humanism will be taught as an Unofficial belief, but not forced upon anybody.


Please forgive me if my English is poor.

It's certainly not communism as capitalism and the state would no longer exist in a communist society. As far as I can tell, your model is much closer to social democracy than Marxism.

But isn't China considered a communist state, or does this term require a one-party system?

And how under communism would trivial things be funded, wealth or food be distributed money, profit made?

Could you give me an example of a working communist nation? I can't help but get 100% tax of your profits and no payment work in exchange for a governmental controlled life welfare interconnected.

Sorry, some may consider me illeducated about this, but I am.

No, that term is actually a contradiction because communism denotes a classless, stateless society.

Well, the term Communist state (note the capitalization) has been used to describe countries which are merely ruled by a Communist party which is why Cuba, North Korea, and the PRC have been referred to as "Communist states".


And how under communism would trivial things be funded, wealth or food be distributed money
Such organization would be done by the workers themselves based on mass participation and democracy.

Ignoring the oxymoron, there have been no communist societies to date.

Thanks for the information. I suppose that my idea would be an unorthodox form of communism, very.

As for the working communist remark, it was not intended to insult the probability of working, it was meant to be invented as an example.

Since you seem pretty new to all this, I would recommend you look up some introductory material concerning communism:
