Communism: You NEVER HAD a cow and a bull!!!
My favorite government type is the fascist corporate state (I'm serious BTW). It's great if done properly, and it's like a realist's Version of communism.
The government gives you a cow. You make milk and calves. The government takes your milk and calves, sells the milk back to you, and gives your calves to others (to make more cows, of course). The government uses its milk money to maintain its Legions of Doom, which are busy burning other nations to the ground.
