As I said on the topic name I'm going to present you an Example that I've been told a time ago and it shows a possible cause for the failure of Communism...
Get this picture, from now on your college grades are going to be based on "communist style" everybody gets the same, such thing is achieved by doing aritmetics and calculating the average grade; and so after the first try the college average grade is 15, not that bad, however people react differently the ones who would get 17 with a regular system start to think that they will have to work hard otherwise they will be drown back due to their fellows, on the other hand you have people who didn't study that much and got an 15 quite remarkable for them, they enjoy that 15 and think that things will be okay because their grades will always be better then they would be with the regular system. At the second try the best students study harder and the worst students relaxed a little bit, the average grade just went down to 13, it is still a good grade for the "average" and "bad student" but way far from the expectancy from those who studied harder and so the ones who started to relax just don't care that much and stop studying and the ones who pushed the average up got frustrated and aknowledge that whatever their effort their future grades would never reasemble their true effort, as a result at the third try the average grade went down to 8.....
Remember that this is just a reflection of an example that I've been told and do not intend to disregard your beliefs only talk about the veracity of this Example or arguments against it....
