 I am not a communist but that doesn't sound right. Why envy?

 You begrudge people their wealth and see it as a reason to treat them worse.

 I am still confused. I can't relate communism with envy. Communists tend to be very authoritarian. Envy for me, goes hand in hand with capitalism and competition mentality.

 You are confusing envy with greed, I think.

 No communists have greed for power for example.
