[quote=Alive;415186]Lack
exists. That's simply reality. Capitalism doesn't require it; capitalism and all other systems find it already there.
Lack does not "require" unemployment. Quite the contrary, if there was no lack there would be 100% unemployment. The point of employment is to relieve lack. Capitalism maximizes efficiency of employment and thus minimizes lack, which in turn minimizes suffering caused by lack. /QUOTE]
Communism works to eliminate lack, though. When it comes up, something else produces a little more to counter, once again achieving balance. In it, lack is the anomaly, not the requirement. Because the idea is that the strength of the community relies upon all parts working equally to create the strongest system. It is a side-effect of capitalism that the community is strong or weak, because it works on all individuals being separate, and each working to strengthen only themselves. And hey, if my life is better because the community is a little stronger, then cool.
Yeah, it might be good though to stop this off-topic conversation, though I enjoy it.
