"Communism - Marxism & The Communist Manifesto
Communism, which is also described as "Revolutionary Proletarian Socialism" or "Marxism," is both a political and economic philosophy. The abridgment of Communism is enclosed in two primary writings: (1) The Communist Manifesto, which was first published in 1848 by Karl Marx, and (2) Principles of Communism, by Friedrich Engels. At the request of the Communist League, an activist group they were members of, Marx and Engels together authored The Communist Manifesto. The main goal of The Communist Manifesto was to focus on class struggle and motivate the common people to riot. Even more so, it was designed to envision a model government, whose economics would destroy the upper class - freeing the lower class from tyranny. According to The Communist Manifesto, Communism has ten essential planks:
* Abolition of Private Property.
* Heavy Progressive Income Tax.
* Abolition of Rights of Inheritance.
* Confiscation of Property Rights.
* Central Bank.
* Government Ownership of Communication and Transportation.
* Government Ownership of Factories and Agriculture.
* Government Control of Labor.
* Corporate Farms and Regional Planning.
* Government Control of Education.
Fundamentally, The Communist Manifesto was a rebellion against the extreme poverty of the lower class."

'The socialist OWS mob invades Oakland, California'
'The socialist OWS mob invades Oakland, California' (video)
Watch this video of a very creepy parallel between Karl Marx 'A Communist Manifesto' and OWS Oakland protesters. These are not 'extreme infiltrators' these are the common voices of the OWS movement. I don't think they even know what they're saying is socialism and marxism, they've just been brainwashed by the progressive baby boomber free lovin' generation. Their children, my generation, are these kids out on the streets. They know the words and ideas, but they don't know the fathers. Theirs, or mine.

Occupation Manifesto" produced by Sally Zelikovsky, Steve Kemp, and Virginia Walters
and listen to the Occupiers
discuss their Marxist vision for America.
