It failed because communism gives up individual human rights for community or collective rights. Since any community or collective is made up only of so many individual human beings it was self-defeating. Capitalism had nothing to do with it other than to show a better way to live. Capitalism is for the greed of man

Communism. The world's most referred to example of communism was in the former USSR, known today as Russia. The USSR actually practiced Stalinism, not communism, arguably the reason why that system eventually failed. Cuba and China practice communism quite successfully. Capitalists often refer to poor human rights adherence in China and Cuba, without recognising that their own capitalist nations regularly ignore or subvert human rights as they see fit.
Vietnam, was not a political battle. It was a military struggle between two groups with different economic philiosophies, Capitalism, and Communism. Of course the US involved itself to help the Capitalist party.One of the things that often accompanies communism, is dictatorship, which was the US' official reason for entering, to support the party with the right to vote, but it was actually a show of power against Russia and China. The US feared, what President Eisenhower called the domino effect, or that if one country became communist, many would follow, and thus, the US intervened in many countries to try and stop this from occurring.
Because if it only works on paper then it doesn't work at all. The mistake is in referring to communism as a theory when every test given this theory fails. A failed theory is a bad theory. Bad theories seek to blame reality in order to survive. Communism is not the problem it is the reality of the current situation that is to blame. If only everybody in reality would change and be more like the non reality of communism then communism could finally work. But, blame is irrelevant and if communism can't offer a system that conforms to reality instead of asking reality to stop being reality. Systems like capitalism embrace the reality of greed where communism aks that everyone stop being so greedy. But, reality being what it is, only the workers get to reject greed while those that "take care" of the workers keep on clinging to greed. Systems like capitalism understand the principles of supply and demand where systems like communism ignore demand and control the supply. Systems like capitalism understand that costs are directly related to prices yet systems like communism seek to control prices regardless of costs. Communism hopes to create a gargantuan state in order to suppress everyone in order to protect them from themselves so they can finally be free and then mysteriously claim that once that "freedom" is finally obtained this gargantuan state will just disappear into a "stateless society." The real question is not why communism fails in practical politics, the question is what practical person could possibly believe such mindless fantasy as communism could ever work?
A man's communism was taken away from him for no reason.
When the US was forming, communism did not exist. The idea didn't come around till the 19th century under Karl Marx. The reason the US did not convert is argued but most people agree it is because of the failure of communism in Russia.
numero dous failed
Poverty.
to stop the spread of communism
Phyllis Schafly led a revolt of conservative women against this amendment. On a legal note, it failed because it failed to get 2/3 approval from the states in the certification process.
Absolutley not. Communism is the farthest thing from a sin and anyone who thinks that is a retard. Communism is a great idea but it is just very hard to maintain. When people hear the word communism they just think its bad because Russia was under communist rule during the Cold War but that is just typical American ignorance. It is a great idea and the only reason it has failed is because of human flaw not because communism is a bad idea. It could work but humans are just arrogant, lazy, backstabbing species.
The US helped in order to stop the spread of Communism into another nation and it was Viet Nam.
