I see nothing wrong with true communism. However, the only places where that seems to work are monastaries and movies. In "real-life", there is always some person that doesn't pull their weight, tries to take control, consumes more than their share, or otherwise takes advantage of the system. This happens in other non-comunistic communities, but in a capitalistic/democratic society in general, it isn't rewarded well. And even on Star Trek, there are the Ferengi... :-) - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - David L.
