[quote=Anonymous]The pilgrims. American kids learn very early on that the folks on the Mayflower gave communism a real shot for few years because it seemed as close to an ideal system as possible for a small community. Influenced by Plato perhaps as much as by Jesus. Anyway, that didn't ultimately work and they had to go with individuals having property rights, but we learn at a young age that our forefathers at least gave it a shot. You can see this in the communes that pop up throughout American history. Americans are fundamentally optimistic people and we keep thinking "Communism may not work for most people, but maybe our little group can make it work". And sometimes they do, at least for a little while. [/quote]
