Communism can be flawed and a flaw it is, but let's not forget that capitalism imposing indignity is capitalism working perfectly and is not a flaw. We reward greed.

So with this communism if used correctly can lead to prosperity.

I would like to point you towards reading about the transitional period, its an important part of communism and also reading about internationalism, essentially its very hard to move from a greedy society to communism and equally its hard to be a communist country while surrounded by greedy countries.

Airlines can treat people like shit because it’s not a free market. If anyone who wanted could start up their own airline, they’d be a lot more consumer-friendly by necessity.
