Communism in the United States

Yeah, but poverty in the US is a king in much of the rest of the world. Our standards of living are so high that the poor are way better off than poor in other countries. No I don't think the US should use any communism, for one, the American people hate paying more taxes or government interference with economy. Its always been that way. It would be unfair to take money from rich people just to give the poor.

Communism, particularly the principle of "Dictatorship of Proletariat (Working Class)" was misunderstood and misinterpreted, even during the life time of Lenin. The Dictatorship of Proletariat does not mean one party rule. Any number of political parties can coexist. Russia, China, East Europe, Cuba and Vietnam wherever it was tried, ended up in a dictatorship of one party rule. Reason was hunger for power and the people were not well versed with what Communism or Marxism really intended or meant. The Dictatorship of Proletariat suggests that working class should rule. It implies that there can be any number of political parties in which working class become members. Thus the objects of "Democracy" and "Freedom of individual" and "Freedom of Expression" are not violated. Those who were accustomed to indolent-lazy lives enjoying pelf and wealth inherited from some dirty rich ancestor cannot appreciate the idea of a country without Right of Property. Hence the shouts that liberty is jeopardized in Marxism. I consider that inheritence denies equal opportunities to citizens because the Rich child starts the race with an advantage. What democracy we have in US today? A deceptive democracy. The Campaign for Presidency or Congress or Senate requires millions mobilised from the Corporates who demand their pound of flesh at the right time. I feel that US working class should go for Marxism and lead the world in right way of true democracy.

I am against the communism in most of the countries in that it tried to adopt this system, everybody was economically the same even so everybody poor

nice topic, i am also a communist, but real communism, not socialism but huge difference, i mean communism is when there is no government and everyone is treated the same while socialism is where the government controls all (fascist state) but i like the idea b/c that is how my ancestors lived for thousands of years in harmony until the invaders came in and put in "democracy" (but well all know its now b/c not everyone has a say b/c true democracy is communism) and from that came poverty to this land, famine, and many other things...
