Try communism in your own neighborhood or even just own family first . Just try it and see how well it works.

Communism works somewhat in a single village with no outside contact.
The moment you introduce competition from another village it must by necessity change.
It's the simplest thing in the world to understand but cummies just don't get it. The world doesn't exist in a vacuum. As soon as you come into conflict with external states communism as an enterprise fails. It cannot function.
Akshually, space is a vacuum. You've been debunked.
At that level its just tribalism, but it can work small scale. However even with small hippie communes you get the problem that some people work harder than others and the hard workers will eventually demand a bigger share of the reward.
In small scale, everyone knows who isn't doing the work and they either get beaten or expelled. On large scale, they apply for SSI and SSDI and everyone's screwed.
