You are taxed on taxes (you buy a house, you pay 2% tax based on money you BORROWED from a bank to begin with and you of course cannot deduct this from income), the tax authority is housed by old communist ladies that will try to twist your words around in any way to fuck you ("this can't possible be a home office, there's a barbeque on the patio!"), I have to pay some $300/mo towards a mandatory retirement fund (adjusted for inflation going forward every year) until I retire at age 67 (unless they further raise the retirement age), at which point i'll get around $120 per month for the additional MAYBE 10 years i'll live), etc. It's all corrupt as fuck, and i'm really hoping this Korwin-Mikke (extremely right-wing politian that's gaining alot of ground lately) guy wins the next election - although it's a long shot...
Sorry to disappoint you but you just described a classic capitalist country, not the communist one If you want an example of a real country which is most close to communism, look at Sweden.
