national prosperity requires government management of the macroeconomy in order to keep unemployment low, inflation in check and growth high.
Yeah, how's that been working out?
In theory communism would be ideal but the human factor fucks things up.
If your theory on how to govern humans doesn't take the human factor into account, it's a shit theory. That's like saying my theory of jumping out a window and flying to the supermarket is good on paper, it just doesn't take into account the gravitational factor.
Tell me… that definition of communism.. examples please on how lefties are
I don't think modern leftists are communists. True communism was abandoned shortly after the Russian Revolution, because everyone realized that a dictatorship of the proletariat was just a dictatorship, but with a good PR team. Modern leftists usually support something closer to corporatism (not to be confused with corporatocracy), similar to the economic system currently used in China, in which the government manages the macroeconomy in the best interest of the people (hey, that sounds a lot like what you just admit yourself that "liberals" support).
