Reply #50: Trotsky's idealogy centered on the community not on the world.

[burr]

He feared international destruction of the community, the use of huge world owned corporations destroying local values, farms, and shops. He believed that if the community made the decisions on distributing wealth, enforcing civil law, and planning for its future that everywhere..governments would whither away from lack of demand. Hence the name Communism.

Communism was slowly perverted into Stalinism, putting national organizations in Moscow before the local communities. The same has happened to capitalism and democracy in this country.
