Only the pigs and shills of the corporatist class that have railroaded this country resort to calling people who want to end this corrupt system "commies".
Yet, when you see how they use the word communist on here, you can pretty much assume that most if not all of them did not seek higher education.
If half of these folks took a one question quiz, that asked "Is Barack Obama, based on his actions and policies, a socialist?", they would all answer yes and FAIL the quiz.
Wanting to end this nonsense going on is not communist, it's AMERICAN

The people you rally against, and appear to show a nice heartfelt hatred for, are the people who prop up and enable your lifestyle as it is.

Until this day I am still trying to figure out where the socialist of communist labeling came from, I have seen the corruption in Washington getting worst as years passed, then we have seen how laws are passed in congress with disregard of voters and tax payers well being, Wall street flourish while the rest of America falls into economic chaos, so I call our politicians whores for taking big interest money, I call Wall street big fat rats leaching the peoples wealth and getting pay for it and if this label me a communist or socialist so beat it.
I know who I am and what I stand for, that is good for me.

The socialist/communist stuff comes from uneducated people that learned the term when Rush Limbaugh started throwing it all over the place.

I know this.
Understanding the world, its problems, and how it works takes coming at it from all sides, surrounding it, and slowly but surely narrowing the gaps in your understanding. I'm not claiming to know anymore than anyone else. As a matter of fact, I know I know nothing. But, as you should be able to see with your own eyes, this system which confines us, is based upon taking from the whole, and giving the loot to the few, any way you cut it. Fools on the backs of fools. There are differences, and similarities between us all. The world should belong to us all, the whole, we are all one, together, like cells of a body, in this universe; I won't really delve into my own beliefs of feelings, but I will say, we are all being "injusticed", excuse my lack of English skills please.
