I wont say that Stalin's communism wasnt true communism, because it is a fact. All I and Universal Mind mean to say is that there doesnt seem to be a driving force for communism, and nobody has pointed one out.
I dont see what is so bad about using the working class to generate worth. You said it yourself, American middle class is still considered wealthy by world standards. So, even though we are being "robbed", we are still richer than the middle classes of other nations. How is that not efficient?
Looking at it from that perspective, i would say that we are not really being robbed. Our system made our average person the richest average person in the world. Again, looking at it like that, on a WORLDWIDE scale, American laborers are not being screwed.
