every system of government is flawed.
that said, communism is fatally flawed.
basically, it kills incentive. whereas capitalism creates incentive.

True communism was destroyed by Stalinist and Maoist interpretations. The centralization of state apparatus required by rapid industrialization completely breaks the whole concept and makes "communism" into something worse than the capitalism for which it's supposedly a cure.

Communism is a great idea and form of government it stands for Equality between Everyone. the only problem is that no government was truly communist. The soviet union said they stood for communism but it was a totalitarianism. you should read the book animal farm by George Orwell. it shows exactly how communism went in the soviet union.

Read it. Does true communism still offer people the opportunity to capitalize on innovative ideas?

Hmmm... good question, I honestly have no idea. I'd think that it wouldn't allow for self gain on innovative ideas. but in soviet Russia, people wouldn't really do things for self gain, but instead for the good of the future of the country. that being said it wasn't truly communist.
