Clint Eastwood has had an amazing career as an actor, director, and producer. People fall over themselves to work with him. Rock-solid conservative his whole life. John Wayne? Jimmy Stewart? The myth that Hollywood is nothing but liberals is old and wrong.

Communism is the political and economic situation where the workers and peasants own all the means of production and distribution. With equal sharing of work and resources, the need for the State withers away.

This works on very small scales, like a farming village where everyone shares, but has never worked on a larger scale.

Perhaps you really mean Socialism? That's where the state owns all the means of production and distribution and controls all wages and prices. That has been tried, and failed miserably.

But I'm curious, can you show me where Hilary Clinton advocated complete government ownership of all private industry?
