People complain about religion, but we forget that Stalin, Mao, were some of the biggest murderes in human history. Communism doesn't work large scale. But people want something for nothing and there will always be freeloaders.

Agreed. Communism might be able to exist in village, but there always needs to be a centralization of power when the scale gets bigger.
I think saying "communism doesn't scale well" is a good way of putting it. I've been to and known of small communities where it worked. Yet it was easy to keep track of the needs of the small community. It simply could not scale much beyond that.
