Your land, maybe even your house, in some cases your own business, since under some forms of communism the means of production are owned by the people, or the state that purports to represent them.
Cuba is not a state. It is a country, with a communist regime as the type of government. It has its own flag and constitution.
This describes communist countries.
Yes. But everyone else also is an owner of the same property.
In a truly communist country there would be no "businesses". The world has never seen a truly communist country of any significance, though, and in most countries considered "communist" you can, kinda sorta, own your own business. Though if it does very well the government may step in.
you could think of something on your own
I believe it varies state to state, but 17 you should be o.k. on your own
The US could have let Vietnam settle it's own issues. If the big Communist Powers had not supported them.
Could impose its own tariffs
The capital of the U.S.(Washington DC) is technically an actual state of its own, but otherwise it could be part of Maryland.
Yes
Well, darling, in a communist system, the government owns and controls the means of production, distribution, and exchange. Meanwhile, in a free enterprise system, individuals and businesses are free to own and operate their own businesses with minimal government intervention. So, in short, one's all about sharing the wealth, while the other is more like a capitalist free-for-all.
there is a reason why it's called the Union...
