I am a communist because I am a human being. I care about what happens to my fellow people. I wish everyone was equal and I wish there was a government that actually upheld equality. For everyone to be equal, everyone must begin equal. This is impossible in capitalism. The nature of capitalism is to keep the rich rich and to keep the poor poor and divided.

Competition divides us by preoccupying us with trying to "get ahead", you will never get ahead because you're not supposed to. All in all, I want a society where everyone is equal, communism is the only form of gov't that allows equality. I believe in a bloody revolution, I am ready, just call.
