It is an irony how the U.S. and other western countries support the rebels in their fight against the government of Libya. Truly, democracy is all about power. Politics is just a big business. War is a continuous trading. No winners in a war only casualties and I believe they are very aware of that. So, why did this happen? I believe it all started for the thirst of OIL rather than the thirst for peace and prosperity.

I'm not sure I get what you mean when you say Communism is the root of Democracy? Is that correct? I am not able to read your topic title anymore, tapatalk UI doesn't do that yet.
Anyway, Democracy is a brand. A brand they will sell you in exchange for Hollywood, music, media and iPods, your country becomes indebted to their banks, your politicians in bed with theirs, and your people and resources a fine addition to their corporations.
The US is a Corporatocracy. So is the whole world increasingly. Their government is run by lobbyist. Lobbyist who works for, you guessed it. Corporations.
Even they themselves are the Corporation. Bush was an oil man and his oil company Arbusto energy allegedly did business with this big shot Saudi guy named Salem Bin Laden, (Yes Bin Ladens Brother).
His Vice President Dick Cheney, was also an executive of Halliburton. Another OIL company. One of the worlds largest at that.
And so on and so forth.
Connected the dots yet mate?
Just look at what happened to Libya and Iraq? It's all about the money.
The money and control of strategic resources.
Anyway it's the best this world has to offer for now.
A facsimile of freedom is better than outright dictatorship I guess. I am sure Benjamin Franklin will disagree with me, but honestly I wouldn't want the people to rule anyway.
Not yet.
Not unless you want mob rule.

i really don't agree when it comes to making war but what happened in Libya is something everybody knows its coming, i'm sure those in power knows it also but too busy counting their wealth to build up their own defense and to maim their people... compare Libya to Saudi Arabia, still KSA is in monarchy and they control the land but they do make their people or majority of their people happy... so they can't be oust.... Outside force like the allies just amplify it for their own purpose, yes and sided to the group that they can maybe main. but things started within and the people needs changes....

what is not good in communism is that there is no incentive for hard work.
what is not good in democracy is what has happened in our country, popularity contests.
what is not good in capitalism (USA), money is power and money can control everything.
everything has a good side and a not so good side.

Communism... be careful with what you wish for.
Hahaha..
It's all good in paper, pero when you put humans to the mix, with all their personalities and variables, you have one cluster f*ck of a situation.
Utopia is not going to happen. Pipe dream ito.
Frankly I'm not even sure I want that kind of equality.
Why would I want all to be equal, eh hindi naman tayo pare pareho ng goals at minimithi. May gustong yumaman at magkaron ng mansion, at meron din naman na happiness for them is to live a simple life in the country or province.
Pano mo pagpapantayin yun? Because some old farts in the politburo wants you all to live life according to their design? How is that equal? Can a poor carpenter in Korea tell Kim to go f*ck himself? No? Why not? Kala ko ba pantay...?
Communism eh nakakatakot sa totoo lang. Why? It is in our nature na laging may gusto to be on top. Hindi mawawala yan. Not then. Not now.
Konting Socialism where the Government pays for free education and healthcare, and just makes sure na walang mamamatay sa gutom and lahat may tutulugan yung mga nasa poverty line eh okay yan.
Pero full blown communal society? Sounds like a cult to me.
Kakatakot. Mao. Stalin and Pol Pot comes to mind.
