No THAT IS COMMUNISM. If anyone is in control (EVEN WORKERS). it's Communism.
No, communism is a term coined by Engels and Marx as an interpretation or "advancement" of socialist theory. Communism may be distinguished from socialism by the idea that a global revolution and world-wide solidarity between workers (hence "The Internationale") is needed to overcome the stranglehold of the state and rich capitalists.
Needless to say, there is a lot of disagreements between the different schools of thought.
I still say that communism has been tried to achieve, but it always ended in totalitarianism.
The Soviet Union and the Eastern Bloc was not communism, it's better described as monopolistic state-controlled capitalism (all capital in the hands of the state). Rulers often abuse and pervert ideologies to justify dictatorship. Marxists would argue that today's capitalism is ending in totalitarianism as well (I know we don't have a truly free market but then again how can it ever exist? You don't like the central bank? Well guess how it came into existence. Due to the concentration of capital in the most powerful "free" banks who then went on to lobby for the central banking system on Jeckyll Island.)
