Why do Americans hate and distrust Communism? Discuss.

@SW-User Sort of an American work ethic? Rise and succeed only by your own efforts?

@4meAndyou yeah personally I feel like people are entitled to help people around them. If you’re successful there’s no reason for people in your family to suffer as long as they are trying. But I don’t think the government should get involved just let people help people

@SW-User I tend to agree to a certain extent, insofar are there are people who actually have family to help them. However, I also believe the government programs that safeguard the elderly, the disabled, and children of impoverished families are necessary. Because if you just let people help people, too many people will fall through the cracks.
