Really, it's such a war out there between the foul Capitalist profiteers and the slave driving Communist hordes. But there's a secret to both sides of the story that neither side will reveal. Your freedoms in democracy are not so free after all and your freedoms in communism aren't quite realized either. Let me give you a lesson you will never learn here in Mayfield schools.

Karl Marx came up with a guideline that would mark the steps from a primitive society to a communist one. They are as follows.

1. Primitive Communism. Nearly everyone knows of this. It's when a primitive society of natives all work together to live. They are like this because they are forced to but nearly everyone is equal. You don't do your job and you will probably end up dead because the rest of the village will exclude you.

2. Slave Society. In this type of society, a few "rich" people will own slaves which will do their work for them. Unfortunately, the majority of the population will still be in grinding poverty but conditions will change soon.

3. Feudalism. Here, we start to see the rise of a new class of citizens. They prefer to go by the term "Capitalist". In a feudalistic society, these will mostly be merchants who take great risks to make great profits. Sooner or later, these merchants will begin to sway many to their side and we will see a new style of government.

4. Capitalism. Oh, this is what Mayfield is at right now. Supposedly everyone is free and able to work hard to make their own profits. The deep dark secrets? With Capitalism, we generally see a democratic form of government, where each person has a say in what happens. All too commonly though, the minorities in beliefs tend to be oppressed by the majority but very few complain because they are still given a sense of freedom.

5. Socialism. This is the style of government that is most commonly confused with Communism. All of you countries who claim to have reached Communism are lying to yourselves and are stuck in a Socialist Dictatorship. The point of this step is to organize the country and prepare the entire world for true communism. In this Socialist step, the government takes full control over the lives of the people and makes decisions for "the greater good". Supposedly, once preparations are complete, the leader swill step down and we will see-

6. Communism. A fabulous utopia where people work for the greater good of each other, no one owns anything, and there is no government. If you have even a bit of intelligence, you can see where this falls apart. Mainly the part where human nature makes people greedy and not willing to do hard work for the sake of another. Oh, and the part where if even one person in the world has more power than another, the entire system will fall apart.

So, take your choice, citizens of Mayfield. In the end, all systems are flawed but maybe for the sake of your own safety, it might be best to side with capitalists while you are in Mayfield.

wise and cool, oh hi ciel, gah speeches, learn from the best
