You know youre in trouble as a nation when the Communist Party USA is openly celebrating the re-election of the president.
And that is exactly what is happening in late November 2012.
The Stalinists are calling Barack Obamas win a victory for the people. As a former communist (note small c), I can translate that for you. It means a victory for communism or, more precisely, a victory for the party.
Just listen to some of the hyperbolic and ecstatic rhetoric: We meet on the heels of an enormous peoples victory. It was a long and bitterly contested battle in which the forces of inclusive democracy came out on top. The better angels of the American people spread their wings.
An African-American president was re-elected to the presidency, the Democrats unexpectedly strengthened their hand in the Senate and House, new progressive voices, like Elizabeth Warren, are coming to Washington, and victories, including for marriage equality, occurred at the state level.
On the other end of the political divide, Romney lost decisively, and right-wing extremism, while not a completely spent force (and it probably never will be), was greatly weakened. Its candidates and, even more, its ideas were repudiated by tens of millions.
Moreover, the balance of power, that is, the ground on which people will fight shifted in a progressive direction, thanks in large measure to what might be the most notable development in this election the further emergence (compared to 2008) of a multi-racial, male-female, working class-based electorate an electorate that has the potential to renew and realign politics for decades to come.

But of course you will have a ruling elite class that will exempt themselves from taxation, property confiscation and other laws.
Same as the old boss...
They won in communist style too. They lied ,lied some more, and when the lies were not enough they stole it .
Why would I want that? The weapon is just as likely to turn around and smite me as smite my opponent.
Communism can be described as a scam by a group on criminals perpetrated on the incredibly gullible. Has never worked. Was never intended to work. Will never work.
Way off topic, but a nice truism none the less.
