A true democracy is when the people hold the ruling power.  A true
communism is when the community owns all property.  To explain this
further, All of the "sci-fi" movies that one may watch are usually based on
everyone do the job they are best suited for (and that they chose), while
the need for money is obsolete.  The best example of this is all of the
"Star Trek" movies and series.  They do not need money.  Anything they need
is "replicated" and they all do the kind of job they love.  Sounds nice.  I
really don't see any conflict between a democratic/communist hybrid.  The
people hold the power and they all work towards a common goal.  They all
take what they need, and help each other out.  I know that it will never
happen in our lifetimes, but hopefully it will someday.  (BTW I ignored the
"show us the wonders..." trollbait and tried to answer seriously)
