It does not work in practice because people are NOT equal in terms of what they can achieve/earn etc., and human nature being what it is, there is an innate desire to progress and succeed in life which is not encouraged by communist regimes. Meanwhile those that administer the communist regimes form their own elitist hierarchies so that the very concept of communism is compromised. In Russia, after the revolution, the cure (communism) under Stalin and his cohorts, became infinitely worse than the disease (imperialism).

There ARE other choices, but the only realistic hope of getting this corrupt New Labour government out of power is to vote Tory. Unfortunately I think a lot of voters will vote for LibDems so we could end up with a hung parliament. I truly believe another term of New Labour will put the final nail in the coffin so far as this country is concerned.
New Labour turned out to be the same old labour with a sexed up new image, and using the same old strategies as always, unrestricted borrowing and spending. Even if we get them out we will be left with a legacy of massive debt that will take decades to repay. They have also shown themselves to be the most corrupt and dishonest government in living memory, leading us into an illegal war with lies and deceit, that has left Britain vulnerable to global terrorism on a scale we have never faced before. Meanwhile Blair remains unapologetic and he and his vile harridan of a wife are self servingly exploiting their "celebrity" to line their pockets, whilst we have been left with an unelected and criminally inept Prime Minister who, with his henchmen Mandelson and Darling, cling on to power to the bitter end. |

If you don't want to exercise your democratic right to vote, then you have no business to whinge and complain about whichever government gets in. If no-one voted then anarchy would prevail. It is impossible to accommodate the wishes of EVERY individual since one person's rights and desires will always infringe on someone else's. Democracy, for better or worse, is the only fair way to govern - "The greatest good for the greatest number" (Jeremy Bentham). Not voting is not an act of defiance, its a cop out. All it demonstrates is apathy. If you don't want the Tories to win the next election vote for some other party or start your own!
