You are making the mistake in thinking that people will want to revolt.

[People will not WANT to free ride or not contribute to a society and an economy they are an equal stakeholder in, they will want to give all they can, and take all they need, to make THEIR society greater.]

You are assuming that greed and laziness will some how be wiped out. Do you have any evidence to proove that communism eradicates laziness, innefficientcy or greed?

[People may be "free riders" today becase their labour is exploited and alienated, reduced to a mechanical process, and that they are alienated from the value added by their labour. ]

You have one iota of proof to back up this wild claim? I eagerly await it.

[In a communist world this will not be the case, and TRUE human nature, which is compassionate, social, and creative, will be allowed to flourish.

Again, wild claim, no proof, and accourding to you, there was no true communist or socialist nation so you can not provide any proof to back up this wild claim. Are you saying that there WAS a true socialist nation so you can provide proof? But you say there was no Communist or socialist nation, so we are back to no proof.
And each time a new Communist or socialist nation fails, guys like you will only yell that they werent truely communist. Its odd that they never yell that during the onset of that government, only when it fails.....
Communism is based on everyone working together and sharing, when we live in a word where no two people can agree on anything of importance. Its a fantasy. And No communist nation was successful, or even a particulally great place to live. And they each cost millions of lives for their failure. 125million to be exact, in just this century.
