    In my mind, pure communism would use no money, just job assignments and resource distribution. In Socialism, money is still used but it is used for the benefit of all, not just a few.

      I would seem them as different sides of the same coin, both self governence, communisms being where communities govern, and socialism being the anarchists version.
