The same argument goes on for Marx's socialism phase in achieving communism. How often does one give even 100 dollars to a beggar? Almost never. And Marx expected that the leader would give away absolute dominance of a nation simply for the good of others? After a nation's original social system was broken down in an attempt to reach his utopia, Marx believed that there will be an era of Socialism, where there is total government control, and eventually the totalitarian government will melt away for the nation to become truly Communist. Greed once again comes into play, and slaughters that generous, divine angel who dwells in our hearts. After a dictator works so hard (backstabbing others and sweetmouthing mobs) to obtain all the powers, the chance that s/he will let his or her authority vanish into the air is thinner than the skin of a tomato. Marx once again makes the mistake of over-estimating the goodness in our hearts.

Thirdly, the communist society will produce harmonious, content, generous people. After all, that is the nature of this theory. However, these perfect human beings will not be able to compete against trained predators of the capitalist society. Their wonderful nature disallows hostility and competition. Also, a communist nation will not excel economically and technologically as rapidly because there is no cut-throat competition to push for the development. When juxtaposed against capitalists, the content, carefree communists will be pulverized. Capitalists' violent nature is to make money, and get better so one can make more money. Unfortunately, these rough monsters will easily out-compete the communists.

A point has to be made clear in this particular thesis, though. Capitalism is NOT superior to communism. Being able to survive better only implies barbarism, and is still in the stage of survival, rather than culturing and beautifying the human race. If the entire globe were communist, then everything would be fine. The world would be happy because there is competition. However, communist countries and capitalist countries cannot co-exist, because the capitalists will eventually devour the communists. And since there are capitalist nations around, they alone will form an un-surmountable obstacle.

In conclusion, Marx was a genius. He created the utopia where everybody would be happy. However, this utopia will never come to be. Human nature disallows it. He came up with the perfect paradise, but we are not perfect enough to live in it. I believe it is a matter of us improving ourselves to live in communism, not adjusting communism to suit our needs.
