The virtue of being a Communist (2)

Communism represents the pinnacle of virtue one can aspire to. At its core, communism is about giving everything you have and receiving only what you need. A clear example of this is the communism practiced by the early Christians. The apostles collected all the money, goods, and property from the believers—those who had much gave everything, and those with little did the same.

A family with four children received more than a single person; those unable to fend for themselves were given the support they required, while those who were healthy and capable received less. Everyone contributed their utmost effort and the best of their abilities in their work, even knowing that their earnings wouldn’t be kept entirely for themselves but shared among their brothers and sisters.
