So no.

And there's the answer; socialism is incompatible with your core beliefs. Nothing I say will ever change that or convince you otherwise; it is not worth taking the time to explain how wrong you are.

(BTW in Canada where we have five and a half major federal parties, 36% constitutes a majority)

I said it was irrelevant. Which it is. If your argument for communism depends entirely on me living in a democratic nation, than you don't have an argument. Likewise, if your argument can be undone by me simply NOT agreeing with democracy, you don't have an argument. Remember, this is not about 'convincing me'; this is about if communism WORKS. What if I was FROM a communist nation like Venezuela or China and said communism didn't work and democracy was being abused to maintain the powers of a despot and, thusly, I didn't believe in it anymore? Would you have a case then?

Also, I find it hilarious that you claim I don't believe in democracy when all I said was that I don't believe 51% should be able to dictate what the other 49% does. Especially when I followed it up by saying I did believe a government should represent and serve it's people as opposed to a select group of elites. It's almost like I believe in democracy but not that a simple majority vote is the right way to do it.
