So wouldnt a sugnificant number of people want more than they have?

You can still bribe leaders in a communist system. Woman amd healthcare exist in lots of capalist systems.

While most people who were alive in the former Soviet block would prefer to go back to when it existed because it caused a huge economic disaster when they sold the countries off for parts and privatized everything for the oligarchs

Not even close to most. Make friends in Europe.

The important part is that it's a system not focused on things like GDP, growth, or money made by corporations to determine success, but the happiness and well-being of all the humans as a collective

Don't I have the power over my happiness in capitalism because I can work towards higher wealth extraction to achieve my own goals?.

Who decides when growth isn't required?

The Soviet Union threatened my parents and grandparents lives. My country did try it, we decided against it. All the issues that capitalism has, communism still has. Add centralized power, and human exploitation is worse. Communism will not solve your problems.

Why wouldn't communism lead to cancer like growth? Wouldn't political leaders be incentivized by the masses for never ending quality of life improvements?

Money is not the problem, it's people. If replace the system, nothing changes. If we want sustainability, that needs to be desired by the masses, and that is achievable without communism.

That is naive. People will still fight for power and exploit others to get it.

Doesn't communism consume everything too?

General info: Looking to get current attic ventilator fan replaced. The attic is about 1400 sq. ft. Current attic ventilation fan is a foot from the ridge of the roof. Live in USA.

Handyman wants: To install two 1500 CFM fans. Two 120 volt 20amp dedicated circuits, one for each fan. He wants to install the second fan 4 feet away from the current fan. He stated that the attic ventilator fan would need to be replaced within 6 years.

My questions: Would two fans be better than one fan? Would I need two 120 volt circuits to run two fans? Is there an attic ventilator that has a user replaceable fan?

Thank you in advance for any help.

I believe they hate him because he's perfect, which is ironic since at at a bomb factory, you particularly don't want duds.

The issue isn't interviewing Putin, but that this whole event is propaganda. The BBC has been trying to get an interview since the start of the war.

People hate my opinions.

I'm surprised that there isn't an open source guide on how to be an effective eco terrorist and what the most vulnerable global chock points are. People have gone to war over less.
