Whose party is this?
by Real Deal on Feb.15, 2008, under Communism, Politics
What political party includes the following tenets in their mission?
1. Defeating the right-wing agenda of the Bush Administration.
2. Winning a wide-ranging program of reforms that put the well being of the people before private profits.
3. Eventually replacing big business with labor and its allies as the dominant power so as to insure that the rights, economic security and expanding needs of the people become the overriding concern of society.
The taking of power by the Bush Administration may have been peaceful but it was nonetheless a coup d’etat. It was a desperate act by big business and its ultra-right-wing allies to thwart the will of the majority of voters who over the past 20 years have come to reject the program of Reaganism and the “Contract On America.”
Answer below:
Many guessed the Democrat party, which seems quite logical, but I could not corroborate those specific words from their materials. Plus I wouldn’t give you a question that easy! This passage was in fact taken directly from the website of the Communist Party USA.
It has, of course, been suggested that the Communist and Democrat parties should merge and combine forces, since their goals are so similar, if not equivalent. They could save a lot on overhead and possibly expand their fan base around the world.
It’s been fun giving lessons in communism this week. Next week’s topic: fascism.
Have a great weekend all! Remember to salute our non-communist presidents Washington and Lincoln this weekend!
