sorry it was your boy Trotsky that explicitly made the argument, but you basically agree with it based on our previous discussion on the topic when you said your plan for no private capital ownership would only work if the whole world adopted the system.  I can look it up for you if you want me too. 

Trotsky agreed that a new socialist state and economy in a country like Russia would not be able to hold out against the pressures of a hostile capitalist world, as well as the internal pressures of its backward economy. The revolution, Trotsky argued, must quickly spread to capitalist countries, bringing about a socialist revolution which must spread world-wide."

but don't quote me as if I said that I thought communism was this or that without proof...you are notorious for putting words into people's mouth's. So if you have the time, and I am more than certain you do-not a compliment-write a whole thesis of my arguments and theories...it'd be an interesting read, not for the objectivity but the manipulation...which you are accustomed too.
