George Orwell wrote a good story about it too.
Human nature and pure communism don't mix unfortunately. As a species we appear to have a selfish trait that goes beyond fight or flight / natural selection etc. And teeters over the edge into a real relish in f***ing other people over and enjoying their downfall and misfortune.
Community rather than communism. How about that as an idea?
Actually I really like that. I'm running for election on that ticket. Vote me!

I don't think anyone apart from you would see it that way. Joe average doesn't agree.

Precisely what I mean about the rich and powerful Jon, Spanker says Capitalism is self corrupting but as for the alternative, Socialism or god forbid Communism,believe me there is no more a corrupt system than the one in Russia and China, and as for the champagne socialists we have in this country in the Labour Party, if ever there was hypocrisy then it’s staring us all in the eyes there!

Sorry, he sounded pissed and traveled to Greece via Bulgaria against Foreign Office advice and Greek attempts to stop UK residents arriving, but you carry on knowing your place compared to the toffs. They won't thank you for it, but it'll be appreciated.
Support opening 'air bridges' by all means, but as a UK resident, to be taken seriously, don't do so from Greece FFS.

That's an interesting concept that government and leaders have no influence on the people in the country they govern

Jon says Stan was pissed....was he? I watched the clip and he seemed to be advocating opening up an air- bridge between Greece and the U.K., unless I missed something he didn’t mention anything about ‘little people’ or the rules not being for ‘people of his stature’?I just want people to post stuff that’s true and not to try and embellish what they see for their own purpose, probably why I hate the BBC because they only report half the truth most of the time, why we can’t get back to good honest truthful reporting I don’t know
Where are the John Pilger’s of today’s journalists?
Great song by the way Sir B👍

It's all hindsight. Borrowing from the logic used earlier in the Pastor thread when we voted our politicians in we didn't ask them of their knowledge of viruses. 
Ooh La La
As I say what's this got to do with Stan's Greece holiday?

If you Honestly believe ANYONE could have done any better then you are deluded and you need to give yourself a serious smack in the gob For even thinking it
