and pricing of goods, as well as the income of
individuals, are dictated to a greater extent by
market forces.

property, profit motive, and market competition.

Russian civil war

14. Pillars of Communism
• Pillars of Communism.”
It is alarming how much these pillars have infiltrated America’s social and political framework in
the last 171 years.
1. “Abolition of property in land and application of all rents of land to public purposes.”
• Property taxes are our government’s way of insuring that your private land is used for public purposes, and
if you are unable (or unwilling) to pay the government’s toll, your land will be taken and given to someone
who is able to pay toll.
2. “A heavy progressive or graduated income tax.”
• The first progressive income tax was passed in the U.S. in 1862, 14 years after Marx wrote his Manifesto,
and had a maximum tax rate of 5 percent. Now, it is 37 percent.
15. 3. “Abolition of all rights of inheritance.”
The “death tax” is especially contemptible because it is the government’s way of
enslaving you to the ‘needs’ of the public, even after your death.
4.“Confiscation of the property of all emigrants and rebels.”
The deplorable 2005 Supreme Court decision “Kelo vs. City of New London” held that
governments can seize one person’s private property and give it to another who will
develop it to benefit the collective.
5. “Centralization of credit in the hands of the state, by means of a national bank
with State capital and an exclusive monopoly.”
6. “Centralization of the means of communication and transport in the hands of
the State.”
16. Pillars of Capitalism
• These capitalist economies operate on the pillars of private property, supply, and
demand, competition, freedom, and incentive.
• Private Property:
Private property allows people to own tangible and intangible assets, with examples of the
former being land and houses, the latter stocks and bonds.
• Supply and Demand:
Supply and demand determine the prices of goods and services. If the good or service you
are selling is in high demand, it is worth more.
17. • Competition:
Competition is at the heart of a capitalist system. Competition drives businesses to work at
maximum efficiency and offer their products at the best prices with high quality to avoid
getting beaten out by competitors that have better prices, efficiency, and quality.
• Freedom:
Freedom in a capitalist economy means that no one can tell you what to do in order to earn
money, and no one can tell you how to spend it. It’s entirely up to you and what you plan to
do with your life.
• Incentive:
An incentive in economics is the financial motivation for people to take certain actions. It
allows businesses to become more creative and inventive, as everyone competes to have
products or services that are better than their competitors.

freedom will get neither. A society that puts
freedom before equality will get a high
degree of both.”
― Milton Friedman
23. Communism

• Abuse of power.
• Restrictions- no freedom of speech, press, no
religious practices.

everyone.”
– John Maynard Keynes

37. Difference : Definition
• An economic system in which the trade and industry of the economy are owned and
controlled by private individuals to generate profit is called Capitalism.
• A social system in which country’s trade and industry are controlled by the community
and the share of everyone relies on his ability and needs, is called communism.
38. Difference:
1. Base:
Capitalism is based on the Principle of Individual Rights, whereas Communism is based
on the Principle of Community Rights.
2. Promotes:
Capitalism is in favor of class distinction, i.e., working class and capitalist class, hence the
degree of class distinction between rich and poor is very high.
On the contrary, communism opposes a division of society according to class, as it
promotes classless society, so, there is no gap between rich and poor.
39. Difference:
3. Government Interference:
Under capitalism, the government does not have much involvement. In contrast
communism, there is a high level of government intervention.
4. Wealth Distribution:
In capitalism, every individual must work for himself to create wealth. As opposed to this,
in communism wealth is distributed as per needs and ability.
5. System of Government:
There is a democratic system of government in capitalism. As against this, totalitarian
government system exists in socialism.
40. Difference:
6. Factors of Production:
The production inputs like land, labor, and capital are privately owned by the individuals
and enterprises, while the means of production are held by the state, in the case of
communism.
7. Preference to:
In communism, more preference is given to society rather than an individual which is not in
the case of capitalism, i.e., freedom of individual is vital.
8. Market:
In capitalism, fierce competition exists between the firms whereas in communism, as the
market is controlled by the state, the competition is quite low.
41. Difference
9. Individual incentives:
In communism, the profit earned by the enterprise is
distributed among all the people of the economy. On the
contrary, the profit of the enterprise, in capitalism, is
enjoyed by the owner only.
10. Labour:
In capitalism workers are free to select the employer and
occupation. In communism state determines one's
employer and employment.
