"K19" the movie, is an adaptation of the events of the K19 submarine (which I'm sure you're familiar with). It was a good movie, although I'm sure there are inaccuracies.
"And if you show me one, single Hollywood movie which is accurate, I'll buy you a drink."
I'm afraid that Hollywood is no good at documentaries.
I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

For those who aspire to live in a high cost, high tax, big government place, our nation and the world offers plenty of options. Vermont, Canada and Venezuela all offer you the opportunity to live in the socialist, big government paradise you long for. –Senator Rubio
oh 'forest people', the 'friends' of jews and 'enemies' of fascists
What the **** was that?

Communism: On paper it is perfect. In reality, as long as people are self interested - which is human nature- and want to serve themselves more than a society, then it wont work well. A democratic communism would have a better chance of working well than a totalitarian one.
Capitolism: In its purest form it is harsh, and unlikely it could last long before being overthrown do to the rich oppressing the poor, though with a little socialism mixed in, it WORKS. It works because its engine runs on human nature of greed and materialism (or, IOW, wanting a better life) - which nothing is wrong with this as long as it doesnt bring harm to another. This is why laws are needed not just for society, but also to regulate, to a light degree, big business, but not regulate them to much. A balance is necessary for top efficiency - i believe in theoretical economics there are mathmatical equations and stuff for this - but not sure.

It's not perfect on paper, it can't be written on paper. It's perfect in the mind of the person who tries to contemplate it.
The word human nature is useless. Human nature can be changed (by you yourself if you give it a shot). The word human nature is just an excuse, a way for many people to rationalize things they haven't bothered to understand.
Democratic communism is both redundant and wrong at the same time, totalitarian communism in an oxymoron. After all, you think the communists in Russia called themselves totalitarian? Communism isn't a government, it's a way of life.
Communism starts in the person and it will work well if you make it work well, whether your rulers are letting you vote or sending you to Siberia. It's just that if they're sending you to Siberia, then they are not communist.
Most ideally you wouldn't even have any rulers at all, then everything above wouldn't even matter.
As a side note, communism can also be different depending on how you look at it. You could call America more communist that Russia ever was, and that is not a bad thing (I don't mean oppression and limiting of rights, I mean closer to the what we take as our ideals, whatever they may be).
No answer is clear, no answer is right though so it's pointless to argue about it.
Ok there's my rant for the hour
