Communism 2 Essay, Research Paper

Communism Is A Better Form Of Economic Organization Than

Capitalism

The purpose of this essay is to prove that Communism is a

better form of economic organization, compared to capitalism. I

will use these following examples equality, employment, health

care and society, to show why Communism is a better form of

economic organization.

First of all in a communist regime, people are all equal to

each other no matter how educated that person is, in the eyes of

the government. For example a Surgeon how is very well educated

is equal in status with a peasant farmer because in communism

their is no such thing as lower class, middle class and upper

class. Eliminating economic boundaries which separate people,

benefits the whole society because then we eliminate the have and

have not, as a circumstance it eliminates crime.

Secondly in a Communist economic system people are never

unemployed because the government owns the means of production.

Meaning the governments owns all the factories and stores

because their is no private owner ship in a Communist system.

This is good because the government can control and decide what

is needed for the good of society and produce it. Another reason

why Communism is good is because everyone in the country is

provided with a job, house and food; no one is denied the

essentials of life.

One of the most fundamental human rights is access to

adequate health care. In Communist countries the right of access

to health care is very well practiced, because no one is denied

health care. In a Communist country you could go to the Doctor

for lets say a Flu shot or a complicated procedure such as

a triple coronary bypass surgery and the government will pick up

the tab, because in communist countries every life is valuable.

Economic systems which operate in a Communist manner

consider first what is good for society. The decisions which are

made especially when their about politics, the consideration is

always based, is it good for the whole of society and will

society benefit?

Now I will begin to discuss why Capitalism is a poor way to

administer a economic system. First in a capitalistic system

their is no equality people are broken down into groups. Such as

lower class people who make under twenty thousand yearly, middle

class thirty thousand yearly, upper class one hundred thousand

yearly and the Corporate elite who make over a million a year.

People are broken down into groups by how much money they make.

Depending how much money you make; you will be seen different

in the eyes of the government. For example if you are a poor

nobody from the lower class, chances are if you walk in to a

senators office he will not even see you because you have no

money. But if you are a Corporate elite chances are he will see

you because you have influence, and influence in a Capitalistic

society is money.

In a Capitalistic system people are forced to compete

against each other to the bitter end. Children are taught in

their schools that individualism is the only way to success and

only to worry about themselves and not society. So basically

children in a Capitalistic system are taught to benefit

themselves and not society. Due to this Capitalistic countries

face huge problems which plague their cities and small

towns. For example drugs, murders, robberies etc. Are a cause of

capitalism, not only that, the distribution of wealth is

ridiculous. A few control the wealth, well others try to

survive, and the wealthy get wealthier and the poor get poorer.

In a Capitalistic system the have and have not are very enormous

causing those who have nothing turn to crime to receive what they

believe they deserve.

Also in capitalism system the government in not very

generous because it doesn’t take care of its people. For example

if you lose your job and you can’t receive any kind of benefits

then you are screwed, because you will become one on the millions

in a Capitalist system in which people are forced to live in

the streets and eat out of trash cans.

Doing this essay I examined Communism looking only at the

pros and found out that Communism is really not that bad if it is

administered right. When I started to compare and criticize

capitalism compared to Communism I found out that Capitalism is

really a harsh form economic organization in which the people of

a same race or country are forced to compete at every thing they

do.

Not only that In a capitalism society many people how can’t

compete in a Capitalistic society are thrown aside and labeled as

bums but society doesn’t look to see what caused the problem and

let these people spoil, because again in a capitalistic society

“only the strong survive.

Overall my views of Capitalism are true meaning that I do

believe in Capitalism, but inside of me I feel that a little bit

of Communism mixed with capitalism will make a perfect form of

economic organization in which the whole of society benefits and

moves forward.
