But some here with white/grey hair recall this list from then. It most certainly isn't an urban legend...how I wish it was! I recall large family gatherings, late 50's early 60's, where all the relatives were discussing this same list and speaking about how compromised we were back then. Shortly after this, by the mid 60's, the public system started to switch from history & geography to *social* studies.

Hey if the list is really "authored" by the Communist Party (as is the claim)....let's some evidence other than an argument from authority? I have asked my simple questions many times so won't bother repeating them again.

Where is it claimed that the list is authored by the Communist Party?

I've misplaced a book published by the Commitern or some such--an early Commie oversight org--I think in Moscow or some such--a really rare book. . . from decades before 1963--I think maybe even 50 years or so earlier.

The key goals listed above were in that book in one form or another. If and when I find it, I'll post key passages.

This particular list may have some bogus elements or sources associated with it in some way for some reason or another.

But the gist of it is NOT bogus.

It was my job to be aware of such early documents, to organize them and make them available to university researchers.

"Hey if the list is really "authored" by the Communist Party (as is the claim)....let's some evidence other than an argument from authority? "

I don't know who actually wrote the list. However, the first time I read it, I was so appalled that I researched the Communist connection to see it it were true.

The Communist Manifesto includes EACH AND EVERY ONE of these ideas.

I'm still appalled to see how far we've come toward meeting these objectives.

Probably that Cleon Skousen guy, whoever he is, in his book. What difference does it make? If it was written by Bozo the Clown in 1957 I'd still consider it an amazing document.

you want research. Ok.


You will find the Ten Planks of the Communist Manifesto interesting at this point.


Ten Planks of the Communist Manifesto






[Source: http://www.mediabypass.com/]

This link may be discontinued. Use your discretion. The thoughts are mind-awakening.







In the early '60's during the days of the "former" Soviet Union, Russian Premier Nikita Kruschev pounded his shoe on the podium of the United Nations and shouted to the West, "We will bury you!" Fearing an invasion from the Reds, America proceeded to build the most awesome military machine in history. Unfortunately, we forgot to guard our political homefront from being taken over by socialist - communist - liberal activists who would gain office and destroy American law by process of gradually installing the Communist agenda within our legal system and seperate branches of government. The Communist program from the start has been one which sees their revolution of 1917 succesful only upon total domination of the world. (See Brain Washing, A Synthesis of the Russian Textbook on Psychopolitics)

Americans, being the most naive people among the nations, now believe that Communism is dead because the Berlin Wall and the Iron Curtain have been removed. The ironic truth is that Communism has just switched names to become more "politically correct". Today it is called international democracy. The reason that the Berlin Wall came crashing down is not because Communism is dead but because they have achieved the planned agenda to communize the West, including America. Washington D.C. has indeed become part of the New World Order of atheist governments. With the last vestiges of Christian law having been removed from "American government" over the last twenty years, there is no longer a threat of resistance against world Communism. In reality, "American government" became part of the Iron Curtain, thus there was no more need for the likes of a Berlin Wall.

Once again, in their foolishness, the American public has believed the lies of their "leaders" who applaud "the fall of Communism", while they have sold out the country to anti-Christian, anti-American statutes and regulations on the federal, state, and local levels. Posted below is a comparison of the original ten planks of the Communist Manifesto written by Karl Marx in 1848, along with the American adopted counterpart of each of the planks, The American people have truly been "buried in Communism" by their own politicians of both the Republican and Democratic parties. One other thing to remember, Karl Marx was stating in the Communist Manifesto that these planks will test whether a country has become commmunist or not. If they are all in effect and in force the country IS communist. Communism, but by any other name...??

1. Abolition of private property and the application of all rent to public purpose.

The 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution (1868), and various zoning, school & property taxes. Also the Bureau of Land Management.



2. A heavy progressive or graduated income tax.

Misapplication of the 16th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, 1913, The Social Security Act of 1936.; Joint House Resolution 192 of 1933; and various State "income" taxes. We call it "paying your fair share".



3. Abolition of all rights of inheritance.

We call it Federal & State estate Tax (1916); or reformed Probate Laws, and limited inheritance via arbitrary inheritance tax statutes.



4. Confiscation of the property of all emigrants and rebels.

We call in government seizures, tax liens, Public "law" 99-570 (1986);

Executive order 11490, sections 1205, 2002 which gives private land to the Department of Urban Development; the imprisonment of "terrorists" and those who speak out or write against the "government" (1997 Crime/Terrorist Bill); or the IRS confiscation of property without due process.



5. Centralization of credit in the hands of the State, by means of a national bank with state capital and an exclusive monopoly.

We call it the Federal Reserve which is a credit/debt system nationally organized by the Federal Reserve act of 1913. All local banks are members of the Fed system, and are regulated by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).



6. Centralization of the means of communication and transportation in the hands of the State.

We call it the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Department of Transportation (DOT) mandated through the ICC act of 1887, the Commissions Act of 1934, The Interstate Commerce Commission established in 1938, The Federal Aviation Administration, Federal Communications Commission, and Executive orders 11490, 10999, as well as State mandated driver's licenses and Department of Transportation regulations.



7. Extention of factories and instruments of production owned by the State, the bringing into cultivation of waste lands, and the improvement of the soil generally in accordance with a common plan.

We call it corporate capacity, The Desert Entry Act and The Department of Agriculture. As well as the Department of Commerce and Labor, Department of Interior, the Evironmental Protection Agency, Bureau of Land Management, Bureau of Reclamation, Bureau of Mines, National Park Service, and the IRS control of business through corporate regulations.



8. Equal liablity of all to labor. Establishment of Industrial armies, especially for agriculture.

We call it the Social Security Administration and The Department of Labor. The National debt and inflation caused by the communal bank has caused the need for a two "income" family. Woman in the workplace since the 1920's, the 19th amendment of the U.S. Constitution, the Civil Rights Act of 1964, assorted Socialist Unions, affirmative action, the Fedral Public Works Program and of course Executive order 11000.



9. Combination of agriculture with manufacturing industries; gradual abolition of the distinction between town and country by a more equable distribution of the population over the country.

We call it the Planning Reorganization act of 1949 , zoning (Title 17 1910-1990) and Super Corporate Farms, as well as Executive orders 11647, 11731 (ten regions) and Public "law" 89-136.



10. Free education for all children in government schools. Abolition of children's factory labor in its present form. Combination of education with industrial production, etc. etc.

People are being taxed to support what we call 'public' schools, which train the young to work for the communal debt system. We also call it the Department of Education, the NEA and Outcome Based "Education" .



So I ask you...does changing the words, change the end result? By using different words is it all of a sudden OK????? We are so "smart," aren't we??

It isnt. Go to Amazon.com (or if you must, go to the library) and get W. Cleon Skousen's "The Naked Communist". It's a very revealing and quite timeless tome.

Damn it Bones. You're a doctor not a historian!

Have the goals come true? Certainly, many have. Many other writers (have you ever read Brave New World?) made similar predications. Actually, the specific predictions outlined in the Protocals of Zion about social trends in the future were pretty prescient (more inflation, debt, promiscuity, etc) though, of course, the attempt to link the realization of these predictions with the Jews was nonsense.

Again, I simply want evidence that the Communist Party in 1963 produced an actual document with this wording or produced another document that this document "interprets." I would think that the folks that love distributing this document so much would be the first to want to verify it.

Are the Communists evil? Certainly....but that still does not tell us about the authenticity of these document with its Dr. Evil like wording.

check out my reply 56. I listed the chapters of the book. It is a very thick book, about two inches thick, and an excellent resource for learning more about the dangers and goals of the Communists.
Remember Khruschev said when he spoke at the UN that Communism would take over the US with out a single bullet being fired.
Get a hold of the book and read it. Skousen has a long list of Bibliography materials listed in back of the book, page after page, of source after source. Read the book then decide what you think.
To me the most interesting chapter was about Castro.
Would love to see what you think after you read the book. I got mine from Amazon.com out of print books, and it is in excellent condition. It was only about $15.00. I guess with old books you get whatever they can find at whatever price. I was shocked that it didn't cost a lot more, since it is so old. Still has book jacket.

I am not disputing the quality of the book. I am merely interested in knowing where the Goals actually came from. Are they taken from an specific document from 1963 (or earlier)? Are they based on another document? I am seem to be completely alone in this concern, however.

29. Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old-fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.

Yes indeed, call it a Living Document ala AlGore and Tom Daschle. Thank God the SCOTUS knows better than to do this.
