No, because you still own your business. In Social Democrat societies, wealth is redistributed through social programs, but you can still have a private business. You can also still become rich, even with higher taxes.
The idea is that the community will be united by ideology. I think this might work in a very very small scale, like maybe among a hundred people. I don't think it's possible on a large scale, which is one of the reasons I'm a Social Democrat, not a Communist.you can't have a society or a community which is the root word in communism without government. The principle of communal ownership requires a governing principle and something to enforce that.
No, I'm saying the government should have generous social programs like universal healthcare and UBI. I don't want to eliminate private property and I don't want the government to give it to whomever they want.you're saying that the government should force communal ownership of wealth that's what redistribution means the government takes from someone to give to whomever they deem worthy of it.
No, I'm saying what makes it not Communism is that there would still be a government and private property.All you're doing is saying all these stupid steps make it somehow not communism. I don't believe you.
If you're going to call any form of wealth redistribution "Communism," then you don't know what Communism is.
