[Discussion] Which political system do you think is the best?

I'm sorry to say that your education is failing on you.
I'm majoring history myself next year, and if you say that communism is purely built around economy, you don't know what you are talking about.
Obviously, communism is based on a state economy, with a year plan (this can vary in each communistic state) but there is much more that influences communism than only the economical plan it is built on.
Lenin had people who oppose him systematically erased from pictures, logbooks, anything that had showed their existence. How can you say that alone is tied to economy?
And obviously, there are different kinds of communism/marxism. While Lenin wanted an international communism, Stalin wanted a national communistic system. This also to increase the economy with the SU, I agree, but also to give the people a feeling of patriotism for their country. How is that tied to economy?

The fascistic Germany in WW2 had a dictatorial regime as well. It didn't control the market for 100 % (it did influence it), and that system worked just as well if you see what they achieved, and would have achieved if Hitler didn't have such a grandour thought of himself and attacked some countries that he should have left alone.

There is no one best political system.
Some political systems are better for certain countries than they are for others, and that's simply a function of the unique cultures present within different countries.
As for the United States, the "best" political system - as in, the one that would function with the least resistance - is likely Capitalism, just because people in the U.S. are so afraid of anything but Capitalism. However, I believe that the United States, from solely an economic perspective, would function more efficiently with a political system supporting what's known as a "mixed economy", an economy comprising both private and public business and incorporating political elements of both Capitalism and Socialism.

Exactly. I think the current problems with the American debts show that what you say is correct. Considering they almost have, what is it again, 14.7 Billion/trillion dollars in debts?
And I think, the main problem with capitalism in its purest form is the fact that, due to globalisation, everyone suffers from it. Another problem that is shown with America's current economical crisis. Or wordly economical crisis.

The U.S. IS a mixed economy.
And by best, I think he meant, which one do you think works the best.

No....Communism is not totally centered around the economy. For example, take the USSR. Tell me that all the stuff Stalin did was totally for the sake of economics. No it wasn't.
But I do think that is kind of the case in China because as far as I understand they use Communism to keep all the poor people working for cheep to keep their economy going. But the actual leaders don't really live a life by the rules of Communism. (I could be wrong, correct me.)
But anyway back on topic I think the best type of governing system is not just one type but a mix of them like I would say the best would be a government that has elements of Socialism and Capitalism and Democracy....yeah....

Stop being stupid ppl lol Look stalin was a dictator, that was his government, communism was the economy for USSR. It had nothing to do with him killing ppl or what not.
And for wesobi I blame the public education for his down right retardedness U_U. Do you not understand that the government and economy of a state are two different things...

Yes but Stalin was a dictator under Communism like that is what he based his dictatorship thing on....he killed them to further his use of Communism.
Yes the public education system is going down a steep hill, all thanks to the cuts in government funding.....WTF.

You are correct ma'am Stalin used the economic style of communism to be a dictator style government
The leaders of the party+the fckers that supported their ideology AKA COMMUNISM.Even if that hadn't happened i would still be anticommunist because my ideology and the way i see people and the world around me is the exact opposite to communism.
Because you said the bold part above... I went with Communism. In theory it should be the best... but then there is the human factor that goes and ruins everything, bringing greed and lust into the mix.

Except for the fact that my country is one of the highest rated countries in the field of education?
I understand it perfectly, but you seem to fail in seeing the point of what I'm saying. I'm saying the political system, or ideology, behind communism isn't only based on economy... Re-read everything I said and get your facts right before trying to flame like a helpless infant please.

I said, one of. If you fail to have reading capabilities, you shouldn't try to act as if you can take on the world and play little troll&scientist.
I have no time nor the patience for a petty discussion with the likes of you.
Come back when you finished your education and able to say you're wrong.
