Commies are not good at math. If they were, they would not be commies.

Even those who are capable of doing the calculations refuse to recognize a few simple answers:
There aren't enough rich people to milk to make everybody rich.
If you spend more than you can make, you'll go broke. It's as true for nations as it is for persons.
If you tax too much, you'll strangle the private economy to the point where you actually pull in less.
If you print too much money, prices inflate and no additional value is generated this way.

On the psychological side: If you constantly rob Peter to pay Paul, they will both ask "What's the point of working?".
And it goes downhill from here.
