I was gonna say, I hate hearing from people that communism is ideal if it is in the right hands. The problem is it takes away the human urge to compete. Let's admit it... some people are smarter and better than other people. Some are harder workers. People are NOT equal. That's just how it is. Capitalism does have its problems in that many are in a disadvantage to make use of it. Also it is hard to be honest and make lots and lots of money. But my thing is, if you get a college degree and work hard, you're going to make plenty of money, enough to be comfortable and potentially support a family. That's how life works. You go through the processes, you work through bureaucracy, and get things done. Try to live in a world where everyone is considered equal to you and you can't get anything better or worse than someone else... it'd drive you mad.
