Greed always corrupts. When the tanks come out to force everyone to be equal, eventually those who control the tanks realize they can do whatever they want in the name of “communism” and it always turns into a totalitarian government.

Communism is great, when everyone benefits. But if there is a single person who has more than their neighbor, the system failed.
