And that's why Communism, while on paper seems like such a nice idea where we look out for each other, will NEVER work on a functioning basis. Communism is supposed to be the absence of greed, but it's impossible to rewire human brains to work any way other than they are meant to. Humans had to be greedy in order to survive, and a hierarchy needed to exist in order for groups of people to live. We're just hardwired to follow strong leaders and the strong are hardwired to look out for number 1.
