10 planks of the Communist Manifesto

[Monterrey]

The following are the 10 planks, or ideals, of the Communist Manifesto, taken from the English version of that document.

This is interesting as the Democratic Party is following these lines very closely.

THE TEN PLANKS OF THE COMMUNIST MANIFESTO

I-THE ABOLISHING OF ALL PRIVATE PROPERTY-The democrats call this wealth redistribution

II-A HEAVY PROGRESSIVE INCOME TAX-What more needs to be said?

III- ABOLISHING OF ALL RIGHTS OF INHERITANCE- Under the Democrat, Jimmy Carter, the inheritance tax was 70%. Under Bush, 43%

Look for this to jump back up when Bush's tax cuts expire in 2012.

IV- CONFISCATION OF THE PROPERTY OF ALL IMMIGRANTS AND REBELS-

V- CENTRALIZATION OF CREDIT IN THE HANDS OF THE STATE, BY MEANS OF A NATIONAL BANK, WITH STATE CAPITOL, AND AN EXCLUSIVE MONOPOLY- When America went from the gold standard in the 30's the value of the money began to drop. With the recent acquisition of Banks in the last year we see a dangerous trend developing towards communism.


VI- CENTRALIZATION OF THE MEANS OF COMMUNICATION AND TRANSPORTATION IN THE HANDS OF THE STATE.-The major push of environmental reasons for mass transit and control of the movement of people has less to do about the environment and more to do about control.

VII- NATIONALIZATION OF FACTORIES AND INSTRIMENTS OF PRODUCTION BY THE STATE.- Be wary when the government wants to control production and resources. The first move of any communistic government is nationalization of oil and production. This will also be the dissolution of the family farm.

VIII- EQUAL LIABILITY OF ALL TO WORK. ESTABLISHING OF INDUSTRIAL ARMIES, ESPECIALLY FOR AGRICULTURE. As unemployment grows, look for heavy government intervention.

IX-COMBINATION OF AGRICULTURE WITH MANUFACTURING INDUSTRIES. GRADUAL ABOLITION OF ALL THE DISTINCTION BETWEEN TOWN AND COUNTRY BY A MORE EQUITABLE DISTRIBUTION OF THE POPULACE OVER THE COUNTRY. We will decide where you need to live and what would be best.

X- FREE EDUCATION FOR ALL CHILDREN IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS. No more home schools and religious schools.



Also contained in the Communist Manifesto is the Statement that Communism replaces the idea of religion.

hogwash, the democratic party is not communist. communism failed in the 90's. the democrats have adjusted to reality.

[Nitehawk013]

Brilliant rebuttal. It's amazing how well you were able to refute and dismantle the stunning comparisons between communism and modern democrats.

Oh wait. You didn't do that at all.

Being a Democrat and saying the party is not Communist is like standing in the ocean and arguing that the water isn't wet.

In other words...you have to be lying or a fool.

THE TEN PLANKS OF THE COMMUNIST MANIFESTO

I-THE ABOLISHING OF ALL PRIVATE PROPERTY-The democrats call this wealth redistribution-tell me whose property has been confiscated?
II-A HEAVY PROGRESSIVE INCOME TAX-What more needs to be said?

III- ABOLISHING OF ALL RIGHTS OF INHERITANCE- Under the Democrat, Jimmy Carter, the inheritance tax was 70%. Under Bush, 43%

Look for this to jump back up when Bush's tax cuts expire in 2012.even some rich conservatives don't believe in leaving their children millions
IV- CONFISCATION OF THE PROPERTY OF ALL IMMIGRANTS AND REBELS-when has this happened???

V- CENTRALIZATION OF CREDIT IN THE HANDS OF THE STATE, BY MEANS OF A NATIONAL BANK, WITH STATE CAPITOL, AND AN EXCLUSIVE MONOPOLY- When America went from the gold standard in the 30's the value of the money began to drop. With the recent acquisition of Banks in the last year we see a dangerous trend developing towards communism.we don't have a national bank, we have private banks

VI- CENTRALIZATION OF THE MEANS OF COMMUNICATION AND TRANSPORTATION IN THE HANDS OF THE STATE.-The major push of environmental reasons for mass transit and control of the movement of people has less to do about the environment and more to do about control.we have freedom of the press have u ever seen fox news, ridiculous

VII- NATIONALIZATION OF FACTORIES AND INSTRIMENTS OF PRODUCTION BY THE STATE.- Be wary when the government wants to control production and resources. The first move of any communistic government is nationalization of oil and production. This will also be the dissolution of the family farm. there is absolutely no nationalization of industry in america except for the auto and bank bailout started by bush

VIII- EQUAL LIABILITY OF ALL TO WORK. ESTABLISHING OF INDUSTRIAL ARMIES, ESPECIALLY FOR AGRICULTURE. As unemployment grows, look for heavy government intervention. there is absolutely no government intervention in unempolyment besides increased spending
IX-COMBINATION OF AGRICULTURE WITH MANUFACTURING INDUSTRIES. GRADUAL ABOLITION OF ALL THE DISTINCTION BETWEEN TOWN AND COUNTRY BY A MORE EQUITABLE DISTRIBUTION OF THE POPULACE OVER THE COUNTRY. We will decide where you need to live and what would be best. hogwash demographics are decided by the economy not government

X- FREE EDUCATION FOR ALL CHILDREN IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS. No more home schools and religious schools.

the only parts of this manifesto that agree with the democratic party are public schools, progressive tax, and inheritance tax. all the rest is hogwash.(satisfied nighthen?)

You are either legitimately uninformed or intentionally playing the spin game again.

I- You've never heard of imminent domain? City or municiplaity can take yourland when they please as long as they offer you what they determine to be a "fair" compensation for it. Increasing taxes on the successful inorder to spread it to the less successful? You really want to play like you haven't heard Obama and Hilary say that multiple times?

II-Higher taxation for those who make more in order to prop up those who make less. That sounds liek stealing ones property(income) to give to another.

III- If you earned it and want to p[ass it on what right does any government have to say you can't?

IV- Just wait. It's coming.

V- You never heard of the Federal Reserve? The TARP funds that effectively put the banks under Federal control? Really? Or are you so naive you can't see the obvious?

VI- Fairness doctrine and others being pushed by liberals in order to silence opposition form the right. Very real and yet you want to argue it isn't happening. Amazing.

VII- Auto, banking and now healthcare. How much do the Feds have to control before you consider it to be Nationalization of the means of production?

VIII- How many "social" programs have the Feds cooked up to intervene for the "poor"? How many years now have they subsidized farmers? Thats exactly what this is all about.

IX- Give it time.

X- How long have schools been used as a means of Commie propaganda?
