I am Coretta Scott King and i was married to a very important person and his name was Martin Luther King Jr. I am with communism because i want the workers to own the factory so each person has an equal amount of power. I am a very loving person and i want everybody to be treated equally.

My name is Adolf Hitler and im a german dictator. Communism is a system of social organization in which all economic and social activity is controlled by a totalitarian state dominated by a single and self perpetuating political party. I dont support communism because I really like my expensive things. I dont think its right that i would have to suffer for other people. This was my opinion on communism.

My name is Anne Frank and I think Communism is a type of dictatorship. It takes away freedom and it also doesn't let people stand up for themselves. Communism abolishes the right that people can alone own a business.I am not with communism. It will take away the right of anyone to stay private with their work and with their business. I don't think I would want to live in a world with Communism it is cruel. This is how I fell about Communism.

Hello, I am Richard Nixon would have to say on communism. "I'm against communism because, as president, I saw what they were capable of. The vietnam war showed how an economic system can push countries apart and start a war, which almost cost my presidency because I couldn't end it. If the people had the means of production, decision-making would clouded because uneducated people would be controlling what the prepared should own. No one really understood just how much of a threat those "commies" posed to the american way of life."

I, John F. Kennedy was raised a patriot. I fought in W.W.II. I was such a good senator that I became the 35th president of the United States. I fought through the Cuban Missle Crisis. I am against communism and Cuba was communist. We fought till the end.

"Hello I am Theodore Roosevelt and according to my notion and whim, I think commonism is a bad system because I have a job as president and commonism isn't fair to ones who works little and ones who work hard. Commonism is a system in which in jobs everyone including workers, inventors,and even the boss gets evenly paided by the government. Therefore due to my evince, I think commonism is not plausible to the people in America."

Hello I am Elie Wiesel, I would say that I think communism is a horrible way to lead a Country because it leads to communism. I am against communism. I have lived my life well, but unfortunately not with a lot of money until the day I was taken away from my home and most of my family. I went to a concentration camp and it ruined my life. Many people suffered from dicatorship of Adolf Hitler, which came from communism. So my final answer is that I am against communism.

I am Ronald Reagan and i am against communism.That is because during the cold war i was active in anti-communists protests. Also i never did like the idea of communism, I felt that communism could spread to other countries and ruin the democracies we have set up.

Hello I am Beverly Clearly. I am an author whose parents and I have suffered from the depression causing us to move to oregean. It was still very bad there. I would support cumunism because during the depression some people invested and lost their money. People became too competetive and took big risks and lost it because prices went down. When one bussiness went out of bussiness an other went out. If we all owned something of a company we would never run out of money and one bussiness wont effect the closesure of another.

Hello, I am Cesar Chavez. I am for capitalism and communism because i want the workers to have a higher raise for their working. They worked almost every hour in each day and they receive a low payment. I am for communism because of the farm labor and the farms doesn't belong to anyone.

Night by Elie Wiesel
Hello my name is Elie Wiesel and I am for communism. Communism is where all people are equal and the means of production is owned by the people. During my lifetime, I was taken away from my home to a concentration camp. The SS officers would give blows to my head and I watched how they would hit my father. I was separated from my family and lived a life with things that are hard to describe. The Nazis would hurt me and my fellow others and looked at us as if we were nothing but a piece of dirt. Who are they to judge? We are all equal, don’t you understand. We are all humans no matter what race or religion we are but that is not what I have seen. Jews were shot for not running fast. Do you think that’s a reason to shot us? We were starved, and put to hard labor, but for what? Because they thought they were better than us? No, that’s not true because I believe all humans are equal. That’s what i believe. And yes, I support communism.

I,Paul Robeson, am against communism. I am against communism because it doesn't give anyone freedom. Communism is telling people what to do and how to do it. For example, in Cuba, the first secretary of the Communist Party of Cuba, Fidel Castro, before his death told his younger brother, Raul Castro, that he was now the secretary of Cuba. The people of Cuba didn't get to vote on that. So that is my opinion on communism. I would want everyone to have freedom to vote for who they want and to not be told what they have to do all the time. I am not with communism.
