A program for real change...

* Peace--- end the wars in Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya and shutdown the 800 U.S. military bases on foreign soil.

* A National Public Health Care System - ten million new jobs.

* A National Public Child Care System - three to five million new jobs.

* WPA - three million new jobs.

* CCC - two million new jobs.

* Tax the hell out of the rich and cut the military budget by ending the wars to pay for it all which will create full employment.

* Enforce Affirmative Action; end discrimination.

* Raise the minimum wage to a real living wage

* What tax-payers subsidize in the way of businesses, tax-payers should own and reap the profits from.

* Moratorium on home foreclosures and evictions.

* Defend democracy by defending workers' rights including the right to collective bargaining for improving the lives and livelihoods of working people.

* Roll-back and freeze the price of food, electricity, gas and heating fuels; not wages, benefits or pensions.

* Wall Street is our enemy.

Let's talk about the politics and economics of livelihood for a real change.

A thought...

All these damn Republican politicians complain about unemployment compensation, food stamps, Social Security, Medicaid and Medicare but who the hell is sucking in all the money doled out through these government programs? Every single cent of the money and services the government pays for goes right into the pockets of business people and doctors--- Republicans. You go to the store and pay for high-priced groceries; who gets the money? Republicans. You get health care services paid for by Medicare; who gets the money? Republicans. You spend your miserly little Social Security check these Republicans complain about; who ends up with the money? Republicans.

How capitalism works...

How capitalism works explained from a worker's perspective...

Abba Ramos, a veteran organizer in the International Longshore and Warehouse Union:

"If they can get a trained monkey to unload that boxcar tomorrow morning, rest assured, they'll have them over there and they'll have some bananas for lunch, and you'll be out on the street looking for work. Simple as that. You've got to remember, they follow only one rule of economic law, and that's that maximum production-minimum cost yields the greatest amount of profit. They don't deviate from that."

If you live in one of these states and would like help organizing a Communist Party Club contact us: 651-587-5541

Organizers will be traveling these states in September 2011 and will be available to meet with individuals, small groups of people, for participation in forums and debates.

We can help you build a Communist Party Club where you live, work or go to school.

Wall Street is our enemy. Barack Obama works for Wall Street. Work inside the Democratic Party to Primary Barack Obama out; working together to build electoral activities outside of the Democratic Party. Working on solving problems of concern to working people we work together towards common goals and objectives.

Towards a people's front advancing an alternative to Wall Street's agenda of wars abroad and austerity at home.

Don't get sucked in by phony liberals, progressives and leftists trying push Barack Obama off on us again as some kind of great leader of the people's democratic front or a friend of the people. There is no way a politician can work for Wall Street and working people at the same time; this nonsense in the working class movement has to end. As long as people buy into this nonsense that the only way to move the country in a progressive direction is to support Barack Obama there can be no progress at all in this country.

A resolution for peace any Communist Party Club can modify as required...

Dear Peace-Wanting People,

Residents of Edgartown and Tisbury are introducing a peace-resolution at their spring town meetings. This is an invitation for you to do the same in West Tisbury, Oak Bluffs, Chilmark, and Aquinnah.

Just substitute your town's name for "Tisbury", print the resolution, and ask your selectmen to sponsor it. (Their signatures are likely all that are needed.)

Any questions? Call your selectmen, town moderator,

(Start of petition)

Town of Tisbury, Massachusetts

Proposed Resolution:

This is a resolution by citizens of the Town of Tisbury to end the expenditure of our tax dollars presently being spent for excessive and unaffordable warfare.

Whereas,

1.the financial resources available for use by governments at the local, county, state, and federal levels in the United States are and must be limited, and

2.each man, women, and child in Massachusetts is currently paying, or becoming indebted for approximately $3,200 per year towards the U.S. defense budget (totaling $9,600/yr for a family of three), and

3.a substantial portion of this money funds warfare that creates great and unnecessary harm to the people of Iraq, Afghanistan, and Pakistan, and to U.S. Military personnel and their families, and

4.education services, infrastructure repairs, other essential public services, and family and private-sector financing in Tisbury have been substantially reduced as a result of excessive military spending.

Now, therefore, be it resolved that the Town of Tisbury Massachusetts directs their Congressional Representative and Senators to oppose all future legislation brought before them that provides additional funding of U.S. warfare and occupation in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Pakistan, and directs these Congressmen to take productive actions to terminate existing occupation and military operations, and to approve only those funds necessary for the safe and rapid withdrawal of all U.S. troops.

(End)

(This resolution is based upon information from:

www.bringourwardollarshome.org/language.html

It's estimated that MA has 6.6 million people, and they are paying $21 billion in taxes towards the annual defense budget.)
