kedaman said:Communal ownership is state control. If I can't do what I want with my property, then its because someone else has a say in it. In communism it is the rest of the state thus state control.
no it isn't In the early part of the 20th century farmers in Minnesota formed "cooperative" creameries, feed mills, grocery stores where all the people who used the business were entitled to share in the profits. These were labled as communist organizations by McCarthyites, and later such organization were condemned by Reagan when formed by peasants in Central America.
In communistic countries you wouldn't even have personal property for someone else to have a say about. If you have personal property and other's regulate it- you are in a either part owner - part of capitalism where people have bought stock in your company - or you are in a democracy where the people have voted (or their representatives have voted) to control your actions for the common good.
