As Abwayax has said, communism would be an excellant form of government if it was executed exactly according to how Marx wanted it to be carried out. Unfortuanately, the leader of the government always seems to gain too much power and control, controlling everything, and completely restricting freedoms. That may sound all right, except they probably have MORENUKES!!! on their side. Using MORENUKES!!!, they could destroy the world. Sadly, communism has never, and likely will never, been performed as it was intended. Why? Because the leaders become greedy and want all the power.

Except, would a Communist government be good if it was run by a I, Robot-style robot?
Because they have to follow the Three Laws of Robotics, and the first law states: A robot may not harm a human being, or through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
And, you know how technology is advancing these days…
Are you trying to impose your beliefs upon us Kyouki?

No. Zeroth Law: "No robot may harm humanity, or through inaction, allow humanity to come to harm". Asimov introduces this concept in "The Evitable Conflict" (which is at the end of I, Robot) and further develops it in his later Robot novels.
