The Communist Party USA is
an organization of activists in labor and all the people's movements with three
main political aims:
- Defeating the right-wing
agenda of the Bush Administration.
- Winning a wide-ranging
program of reforms that put the well being of the people before private profits.
- Eventually replacing
big business with labor and its allies as the dominant power so as to insure
that the rights, economic security and expanding needs of the people become
the overriding concern of society.
You don't have to be a Communist to be part of this effort or make important
contributions to it, but it helps!
That is because the Communist Party is an organization of activists in every
part of the expanding labor-led coalition and can therefore help unite and strengthen
the overall movement against the ultra-right danger. It is also because the
Party has a rich experience and history, a deep understanding of the long-range
forces that are at work and a clear vision of what is possible if the corporate-right-wing
coalition is defeated and labor and its allies are able to take the offensive.
In this case, long-standing pent-up needs of the people can be addressed. Unions
can get the same freedom to organize that exists in Canada and most of Western
Europe. Discrimination against minorities and women can be sharply curtailed.
Massive public works programs with affirmative action can be established to
create jobs, revive basic industry, rebuild our cities and crumbling infrastructure
and clean up the environment. Quality, integrated public education can become
available to everyone from nursery school to graduate school. National health
care, social security, housing and necessary utilities can be guaranteed as
basic human rights.
The wealth and resources for these and other programs are abundantly available
in our country but are monopolized in the hands of a tiny group of billionaires
whose sole, overriding aim is to maximize private profits.
The struggle for the rights of the people takes place in many different arenas
- economic, intellectual, cultural and political. But the result of the growing
unity and mass mobilization, is that the privileged few will be defeated. Labor
and its allies will become the dominant force in our country and will establish
the structures needed to guarantee the rights and security of the people. To
facilitate this revolutionary change and to make it as peaceful and painless
as possible is the ultimate aim of the Communist Party. The outcome will be
a society with social ownership of the means of production built on the progressive
and democratic gains that our people have won in over 200 years of class struggle
and on our own unique multi-racial, multi-ethnic culture, traditions and history.
