Communism

Communism is based off the ideas of Karl Marx stating that the society would be a classless society and all resources are divided equally among the people. The definition of communism "a theory or system of social organization based on the holding of all property in common, actual ownership being ascribed to the community as a whole or to the state." the first country to become a communist state is Russia after the Bolshevik revolution. The Bolshevik party turned their name into the communist party and just took all of power. Also during the Second World War Germany was a communist nation that led to the U.S. policy of containment that is trying to stop the spread of communism and the theory of the domino effect which is that if one nation becomes communist then the surrounding nations will become communist. Surrogate wars were also fought following WWII of communist and non-communist nations like Vietnam and Korea. I do agree with the idea that everyone should be equal however, nothing successful has ever come out from a communist nation and the people are miserable. So I disagree with the ideas of communism.
