Whats Wrong With Communism I would go to Russia. I would speak on Government. This is what I would say: I am here today to tell you about freedom. I am here to tell you about independence. I am here to let you know about something called a Constitutional Democracy. This form of government, very unlike yours, puts the power to the people. Communism is a very old, and decaying way of rule. Communism, in a broad definition, puts the ownership of farms, mines, factories, etc. in the hands of a group of people. This leaves the individual with less freedoms. This also weakens the economy. The Democracy is much the opposite.
