I felt this way about it but the more I thought about it the less I felt it was communism because she said she was elected. If in fact they are having fair elections then it's only communism in a much smaller sense. Also no one has anything to begin with so no one is losing or giving up anything by chipping in. I also have to wonder what they will do with anyone who does not do their fair share.
Semantics aside, communism doesn't exclude democracy. You can very well have a communist democracy. Communism is an economic system, whereas democracy is a political system.
Just like you can have a Capitalist absolute monarchy. (saudi arabia)
