“A vote for Communism is a vote for another ruthless dictator”-American

As opposed to the many wealthy, white, fascist, Christian dictators which hold power in America?

The problem is not communism or capitalism. The problem is authoritarianism. All governments tend to move closer to authoritarianism the further left or right governmental policies move.

The government governs best which governs least. The social welfare system of communism tends to retard progress without a good reward system to motivate the people. The corporate welfare system of fascism (as in the US), tends to create wage-slaves and focus all wealth in the hands of a privileged few.

The United States is no longer the free republic that it’s founding fathers designed. Year after year, the power has been stripped away from the sovereign individuals and states and placed into the hands of the federal government. The US government should now be classified as a fascist oligarchy. Americans are just too stupid and lazy to realize it.

Wake up people! Stop blindly trusting governments. They don’t have your best interests at heart.

Not come out and vote the day of elections = 18.3% Come out and vote the day of elections = 78.3%

new then it should be that the masters of these monsters are terrified as hell. They see all their efforts as not leading to the desired result; the withdrawal of American troops or at least the delaying and then the canceling of the elections. Ladybird agrees with Ali, citing a recent poll published in Al Sabah. *

to create a pluralistic and democratic federal government. In that, they are joined by 85% of their fellow Iraqis, who rely on them to help deliver a new day.The numbers he is citing come from a series of local polls done by the pro-US local newspaper, al-Sabah . However, as Juan Cole has pointed out, those numbers are seriously flawed. Rightwing pundits … have taken up this al-Sabah poll as a cause for optimism. But they ignore the I & R findings. The Baghdad poll is flawed for several reasons. First of
