(48 votes)   I have no concern with any economic criticisms of the communist system; I cannot inquire into whether the abolition of private property is expedient or advantageous. But I am able to recognize that the psychological premisses on which the system is based are an untenable illusion.

Sigmund Freud
1856-1939, Austrian Physician - Founder of Psychoanalysis
