Question Communism. Good or bad. What do you really know about Communism?

Hi,

Here is a forum with a huge majority of Anglo-Saxons. So I suppose that you mainly hate communism. But why?

Exactly 15 minutes ago, I spoke with a 50 years old guy born in Yugoslavia.
He's a huge worker.
He knew the Communism and just told me that the Tito's years were the best years of his life.
There were no poor people, very few criminality, all the children had an education. They were not rich but they lived well.

He finally quit Kosovo during the war and came back when the war was finished. He finally decided to quit one more time his country.

He told me that everything has changed in the worst direction.
A lot of criminality, a lot more poor people and absolutely nomore solidarity.

Now I work with a Polish guy who is a little bit older.
He's incredibly lazy, he spends his money buying stupid things. He's an egoïst, but on several ways he's really funny and he has a very good level of knowledges. He knows how to integrate or derivate functions.
He HATES communism. He always tells me that were the worst years of his life. He always tells me the same story: "Why we only had one type of grey phone at home and not several ones to choose? Why we had to be restricted in the quantity of gazoline to put in our cars?"
But he never told me that he was hungry or there were hungry people in his city.
After the fall of the wall, my Polish coworker never went back to work in Poland.

When I read that 46 millions Americans people, 9 millions French people live under the line of poverty and when I spoke with my Polish hater or my Yugoslavian fan of Communism, both told me they never were poor and nobody were poor.

So in your point of view, who is right, who is wrong?
Does a good Communism really exist? Is it a model of society that correspond to a proper personal philosophy?
Is Communism that bad?
