The Communists are to political parties as the Mafia is to business organizations. Both are criminal enterprises and as such should be OUTLAWED!

Excellent point! Why is putting the word "Party" after something make it OK? I could create the "NAMBLA Party", would that make it OK?

I think their utopianism, all by itself, determines the treatment they deserve as a political organization. They repudiate all non-communist societies and set themselves up as their mortal enemies. The political structures within those societies are there for the society’s benefit, they are not there to be “gamed” by its mortal enemies. Communist parties should be banned and their leaders thrown in jail in accordance with the Smith Act. What keeps this from happening is a decadent view of freedom popular among self-satisfied elite boobs.
