Are You A Practicing Communist?

Autarchic 2011/09/25 13:15:36
Many Americans pride themselves as being relentless anti-Communists. A lot of people think of the communists as the bad guys and the cause of our troubles and that of the rest of the world's. This bad guy must look really bad and we should spot him easily in a crowd. Let's examine what a communist really is.

Communism is a way of life that is contrary to most teaching of the Holy Bible and that of the common people, as our beloved country the 50 united States of America was founded to be. In 1848, Karl Marx wrote the ten (10) planks of the Communist Manifesto. It is the foundation of what communist ideology is all about. A true communist or communist country would be practicing all ten (10) planks. Today, here in the 50 united States of America, we ARE practicing all ten (10) planks and we don't even realize that we are in reality communists. We would rather call ourselves something else.

The 1st Plank: THE ABOLITION OF PROPERTY AND LAND AND THE APPLICATION OF ALL RENT IN LAND TO PUBLIC PURPOSES.

As in the old law of Moses and in the first 150 years of the united States of America, when you owned land, you had absolute title to that land and no other party could lay claim on it whatsoever unless you sold the land or voluntarily let another party lay claim. But then, you had the right to get it back, even if it will take your grandchildren to claim it all back. Today, we only have what you might call a 99 year lease. The State can confiscate your land for non-payment of taxes or some supposed crime. The only reason the State can do this is that you don't really own your land. The State has controlling interest on your land and you are merely paying rent and this rent goes toward the public use such as paying toward the interest on the national debt.

The 2nd Plank: A PROGRESSIVE, GRADUATED INCOME TAX.

Need this be explained? We all know that there is an income tax in the 50 united States of America and that the more you make, the higher your tax bracket, the more you are taxed. We did not have income tax until the 1940's. Through instruments of government such as the public fool (school) system and with the help corporate funding we have been convinced it applies to everyone even though it doesn't.

The 3rd Plank: THE ABOLITION OF ALL RIGHT OF INHERITANCE

In the old Law of Moses and the first 150 years of the united States of America, there was NO inheritance tax. In the Law of Moses, land was transferred to the eldest son absolutely. In the first 150 years of the united States of America, inheritance and/or your assigns was also absolute. There were no third parties involved. This started with the birth certificate and then getting a marriage license which makes the State the third party. When a spouse dies, the other spouse cannot claim the fruits of the marriage because of the third party, the State. Now, the state would in effect say "buy me out." Then the land would be forced to be sold just to pay the State, and almost always attorneys, who always want cash.

The 4th Plank: THE CONFISCATION OF ALL PROPERTY OF EMIGRANTS AND REBELS

Some people are beginning to find out about what is really going on. They are beginning to rebel against these communist and/or satanic practices and in the process, SWAT teams are sent against them. Businesses are padlocked; homes are liened; bank accounts seized; some are jailed without due process; and many are outright killed. What will it take to practice the Bible teaching and follow our original Republican Laws?

The 5th Plank: THE CENTRALIZATION OF CREDIT IN THE HANDS OF THE STATE BY MEANS OF A NATIONAL BANK WITH STATE CAPITAL AND AN EXCLUSIVE MONOPOLY

This brings us straight to the Federal Reserve Banks. The basis of the Federal Reserve Note is credit, which is the reason it lacks gold and silver backing. The government borrows these notes (they didn't borrow anything of value) to pass on to the people and you will notice how huge the federal debt is. All for the cost of printing these paper notes. In the Law of Moses and in the first 150 years of the united States of America, people used gold and silver coins which have intrinsic value. The Federal Reserve Bank has a monopoly on issuing currency today in violation of Article I, Section 10 of the United States Constitution for the 50 united States of America, "No State shall make anything but gold and silver coin a tender in payment of Debts." This worthless paper currency is distributed through the local banks.

The 6th Plank: THE CENTRALIZATION OF THE MEANS OF COMMUNICATION AND TRANSPORTATION IN THE HANDS OF THE STATE

This is accomplished by the Federal Communication Commission (FCC) which controls, regulates and licenses all newspapers and magazines; radio and television stations, local or national distribution who are in a corporate or in a State created entity. Transportation is controlled by the various State Departments of Motor Vehicles and enforced by the various law enforcement agencies. Isn't it strange that we hired peace officers (to keep the peace), but somehow they became law enforcement officers?

The 7th Plank: THE EXTENSION OF FACTORIES AND THE INSTRUMENTS OF PRODUCTION OWNED BY THE STATE AND THE BRINGING INTO CULTIVATION WASTE LAND AND THE IMPROVEMENT OF THE SOIL GENERALLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH A COMMON PLAN

Factories are all controlled by the government by means of permits and licenses, and various other agencies like O.S.H.A., labor boards and others. Smaller businesses are really extensions of these factories because most are franchises. You cannot put up a business and start selling somebody else's product unless you first ask for and pay for this privilege. Even if you will buy and sell in bulk. Farms are told which crop to plant and are sometimes paid not to plant. Farms are controlled by various government agencies like Soil Conservation Districts, Bureau of Land Management and Desert Land Entry Act where government owned desert is leased out to farmers. And what about U.S. Wetlands?

The 8th Plank: EQUAL LIABILITY FOR ALL TO LABOR AND THE ESTABLISHMENT OF INDUSTRIAL ARMIES, ESPECIALLY FOR AGRICULTURE

Equal liability is accomplished by means of the Social Security Number and most are members of an industrial army because you cannot get a job with a corporation unless you have a Social Security Number (slave number). You are part of the Social Security Army and being unemployed, the unemployment office will send you to work.

The 9th Plank: THE COMBINATION OF AGRICULTURE WITH MANUFACTURING INDUSTRIES AND THE GRADUAL ABOLITION OF THE DISTINCTION BETWEEN THE TOWN AND COUNTRY BY THE MORE EQUITABLE DISTRIBUTION OF POPULATION OVER THE COUNTRY.

Real wealth comes from the land and in 1920's, almost half the population owned their land outright. That has fallen steadily since then through farm foreclosures because these farmers are needed in the cities to work in factories. Equal distribution is not distributed evenly but rather distributed where you are needed. By the turn of the century, this country is expected to have but a few super corporate farms (like ConAgra?) instead of millions of family owned smaller farms, just like in Russia!

The 10th Plank: THE FREE EDUCATION OF ALL CHILDREN IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS

Do you need this explained? Even private and church schools need to have permits and licenses from the government and follow approved curriculum. This way our children can be indoctrinated with humanistic principles, and communistic ideology. Subtly but effectively.

One big difference between Russia and the 50 united States of America is that in Russia, people do not pretend to have private property, they don't call themselves free and homeowners like in the 50 united States of America. Private property has been subjugated to the 10 Planks of the Communist Manifesto.

NOW, are you a practicing communist? Be honest....
You!

    A lot of people are extolling Communist virtues not even aware they are.
    In 1948 while campaigning for president, Norman Thomas of the Socialist Party of America said “The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But under the name of ‘liberalism’ they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until one day America will be a Socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.”

    The question is a good question. Do you not like it because you have been practicing communism for your entire life or do you not like it because it shows that our country has been communist for over 100 years.

    Under Biblical principals inheritors should tithe 10% of it to the church so the poor could be fed. Fallen corn left for the people to eat is the same ethic, those with pleanty give to those with nothing.

    Since our founding education always had a priority. The homestead act had the 16th parcel of land designated as a schools. The dark ages had only royalty educated, which it appears as something you want. You can't pay for it, your kids don't receive an education.

    Conservatives are the ones that back billionaire Waltons sending our jobs to our economic enemy Communist China. Cantor wants better breaks for outsourced income. Foreign taxes are deductible, federal taxes are not. Kill that write off to the GOP is asking them for their eye teeth.

    So for those of you gullible people who believe in the stage show of capitalism, versus communism, versus socialism, help, and are soo convinced that these really are different systems, show me what I am missing.

    Capitalism - Free Market and Private Ownership
    Communism - State Ownership

    Capitalism - For the most part, practice any Religion that you want, if you want
    Communism - Persecutes those of Faith

    Capitalism - People are responsible for themselves
    Communism - People are dependent on the collective

    Capitalism - Elected Officials
    Communism - One Party Rule

    Those are pretty big differences. Also, regarding your list, you forgot to add "People drink water, eat food, skies have clouds, etc."

    I have heard that argument before too, it doesn't address my question. In none of the 3 are you responsible for yourself, that is impossible in a system where resources are controlled by governments, and corporations which is the case in all so called 3 systems! You do not have independence, and the term free market is used very inappropriately, a free market is one in which you would NEVER have to go through someone else to get resources, because nobody controls resources! The proper term for what you believe in and also people who call themselves socialist, and communist believe in they just don't admit it is FREE ENTERPRISE!

    Russia has some of the biggest Christian Churches in the world, so you failed on that argument, Cuba has a lot of churches.

    Ohh yes the State Ownership Versus Private Ownership argument, heard that one too many times, again at best splitting hairs, no difference between those 2.

    "you forgot to add "People drink water, eat food, skies have clouds, etc." I'm missing your point.

    Private individuals can start their corporate empires in the Capitalist system.

    Free Market, if you get to the resources, you are free to sell them on the market for profit.

    Capitalist - Get yourself a house
    Communist - Get yourself into Collective housing

    Owning your house vs Government owning your house is a much bigger difference than hair splitting.

    I'm not talking about Russia I was talking about the Soviet Union, which had a huge crack down on churches.

    My point is the majority of societies have jails, officers, politicians, etc. So having all of those listed is like saying, "Four limbs, hair, teeth, breathing air, all describe humans and chimps, so why do we have different terms?"

    You still have not convinced me that they are in reality different systems. In all 3 you live in a state of dependency unless you are part of the 2% parasite class!

    "Private individuals can start their corporate empires in the Capitalist system." No existing empires won't allow it, and they have governments backing them up. You can start your business you're still working within this cancerous system called the monetary system, and in all 3 people start businesses that's nothing new.

    "Free Market, if you get to the resources, you are free to sell them on the market for profit." You have made no point there. That is precisley what I am speaking out against! That is an unsustainable system, that's a scarcity orientated system that can only sustain itself as long as there are people living in deprivation, that is not an access oriented system.

    "Capitalist - Get yourself a house
    Communist - Get yourself into Collective housing" No difference between those 2 at all. Both have mortgages, leases, management offices, etc, that is a pure illusion, both require humans to run the housing infrastructure, no difference between those 2 things.

And when it was the Soviet Union it had very large churches as it does now, no difference, they had heavy religious influence as it does today despite the fact that Stalin was an Atheist.

    "So having all of those listed is like saying, "Four limbs, hair, teeth, breathing air, all describe humans and chimps, so why do we have different terms?" You made no point there. There are measurable differences genetically between Humans, and Chimpanzees, thats a matter of simple science, there are NO measurable difference between communism, socialism, and capitalism, they all need enforcement in order to keep the stupid system in place, and any system that requires enforcement is a flawed system that is absolutely doomed to failure! The reason I list those attributes is to show that there is no difference between the 3, and the fact that they are all scarcity orientated economies, the fact they have all those attributes proves my point.

    Microsoft, Apple and Google started small and are now wealthy businesses. What business empires ruled in the Soviet Union? The Eastern Bloc?

    It sucks to be the people in poverty, but hey, the system works for the rest of us.

    1917, the Communists put limits on how much space one is entitled to, resulting in multiple families sharing an apartment, while in the US, the Government doesn't put such limits, one is only limited on how much they can buy.

    Tens of thousands of churches were destroyed, over a hundred thousand priests were arrested, thousands of the clergy and followers were executed or sent to Gulags and Sharashkas. How is that considered "no difference"?

    The Democracies and Capitalists prevailed in the Cold War, it is the superior system, until something better comes along, we're sticking to this one.
