text: how do i like ideals of communism, but i love the us? i would never want the us to become communist, but i look at communist countries, besides north korea, and i admire the way they run and they are lead. i read an article in a time magazine featuring three important people........ einstein, freud, and karl marx (the founder of communism.) do some reseach on karl marx, his ideas are great.  i too like some of the ideas of communism (in theory).  but unfortunately, many cruel dictators throughout history have ruined the idea of communism and given it a bad name.  so many people in the us will dislike you for even saying that you like the concept.  i remember my great grandmother totally tripping out on "the commies." lol  good luck and keep an open mind!
