Free housing, guaranteed job and food ( although limited ). I was born three years after comunism fell in my country. Since then the people, who have been supported by foreigners to seize power and kill the regime leader, have sold every valuable asset the country has( land, gold, oil ) to foreigners. The regime leader held the population in poverty to pay all debts. It would have taken two more years for the country to be free of any dept and consequently any exteriour influence. Why would the big players ( especially the US ) want a medium sized country to have such freedom?

The problem with communism is It's execution with humans. By "guaranteed job" what you really mean is forced labor. A job is a means to an end - to produce products in exchange to buy products. Without selfish motivations, humans become lazy.
The next phase communism MIGHT work is when AI operates all of our means of production, but capitalism will still be required to drive art and other more intangible commodities
