George Orwell once said "All animals are equal but some animals are more equal than others." I believe that this statement is true, because everyone is born with certain advantages or comes across unique opportunities in life. This is the exact problem that socialism and communism try to fix, as they strive to achieve exact equality for all people. This points out the problem with Communism and Socialism- that the government strives for uniformity while nature works in the opposite direction, towards chaos and variation. In this way, communism will never result in perfect consistency, but just place the power somewhere else- in many cases to government officials. In this way, perfect communism can never be reached.
