Try honesty.
Instead of all the dishonest propaganda and innuendo that constantly flies about. Instead of all the specious rationalizations, how about just saying it like it is.
You think the rich have obscene amounts of money. You think there is so much that there is no reason why anyone shouldn't have a modestly comfortable life here. You would like the government to arrange for the stripping of all that excess wealth and using it to better the lives of the common man in this country. You would like for corporations to be forced to do "the right thing" by the government and you don't think profit for shareholders is that right thing, but rather, paying all employees a very good wage and producing products at the most modest prices.
I don't think it's justifiable or practical and I don't think it would be productive to even try to go there. I think communism is an ideology that fails in practice every time. I don't think you would convince me that it would work, but you might get farther along with your agenda and ideals if it wasn't so apparent that communists are compulsive liars.
