First of all, both you and the ignorant Maharishi probably mean socialism. Communism involves the violent overthrowing of the ruling class by the working class. Maharishi and all his educated minions would be enemies to communism and among the first to be persecuted in a communist takeover.. What it lacks is the understanding of human nature. People who don't see the personal benefit for busting their ass stop working hard. And politics becomes corrupt as all the party leaders of every communist country we know about has proven. The collapse of communism and the rise of free enterprise in previously communist countries has proven the flaws in communism. That is for anyone who likes to read or knows people from these countries. You know, people with their eyes opened. > Your rant has nothing to do with facts, only feelings as usual. > That communism hasn't worked perfectly in any country TO THIS DAY is > irrelevant and a totally different discussion altogether. So tell me what day it will be when humans stop acting in their own best self interest and when all the educated people in the world need to be violently overthrown by the workers? And BTW if the guy who changes oil at Jiffy Lube uses a computer, is he part of the revolution, or part of the problem? But I may be wrong. Tell me why Maharishi uses the word "Communism" which involves a violent power transfer, rather than "socialism"? >
