Well, it all sounds very nice, but it would never work.   Communism, in theory, is the perfect way of life - to each according to his needs, from each according to his means. The sort of Utopias we're describing above are perfect in theory, but already the thread has descended into squabbling and disagreement before we've dug the first foundation.

Trouble is, we're all humans and the basic human instincts are for the survival and procreation of our own DNA. We all feel that our own needs and rights are the most important - no matter how much we do or give to charities, when it comes to the wire, very few people would actually donate to their own detriment.   We live in a solispsist society, one that seems hell bent on producing generations of people who live only for themselves.

When you build a perfect city, you have to people it with perfect humans, and there was only one of those.
