Communism is the best form of government. Communism is a system where the state owns nearly everything and people have to be employees of the state. In all countries where soviet styled communism was in operation, there were no free elections. The communist party candidates were the only ones on the ballot and had no opposition.
Because of the power of the state, communism allowed no dissent. It was a crime to criticize the top leaders. People kept their mouths shut.
Getting anywhere in life meant adhering to the party line, speaking out for the advantages of communism and criticizing all other systems of society.
Its advantages did exist: health care and education thru the university were free, in fact the government paid the university students stipends to cover their expenses as students. Rents were next to nothing, as the government owned all living units except single family homes,
