American Marxism is the source of our “political instability;” the term should be re-labeled “Marxist Class Struggle.”

“The history of all previous societies has been the history of class struggles.” Karl Marx

“The theory of the Communists may be summed up in the single sentence: Abolition of private property… In one word, you reproach us with intending to do away with your property. Precisely so; that is just what we intend.” Karl Marx

“The proletariat (non-disabled poor) will use its political supremacy to wrest, by degree, all capital from the bourgeoisie (middle class), to centralize all instruments of production in the hands of the state… Of course, in the beginning, this cannot be effected except by means of despotic inroads on the rights of property… You must, therefore, confess that by “individual” you mean no other person than the bourgeois, than the middle-class owner of property. This person must, indeed, be swept out of the way, and made impossible.” Karl Marx

“In short, the Communists everywhere support every revolutionary movement against the existing social and political order of things. In all these movements, they bring to the front, as the leading question in each, the property question, no matter what its degree of development at the time…. The Communists disdain to conceal their views and aims. They openly declare that their ends can be attained only by the forcible overthrow of all existing social conditions…We have seen above that the first step in the revolution by the working (non-working – Marx was a liar) class is to raise the proletariat to the position of ruling class to win the battle of democracy (use class struggle and the principle of democracy to defeat a Constitutional Republic.” Karl Marx
