The Principles of Communism - Frederick Engels (1847)

1.What is Communism?

Communism is the doctrine of the conditions of the liberation of the proletariat.

 2.What is the proletariat?

The proletariat is that class in society which lives entirely from the sale of its labor and does not draw profit from any kind of capital; whose weal and woe, whose life and death, whose sole existence depends on the demand for labor – hence, on the changing state of business, on the vagaries of unbridled competition. The proletariat, or the class of proletarians, is, in a word, the working class of the 19th century.

Corruption the root of the democracy not the branch to curtail

Let me ask a question, where everybody has their own answers but all cannot be the answers
What the corruption means?

Is it a staff from office boy to manager bribes the civilians neither the politician’s loot the money for their arduous job contributed to society?
The chunk of money that makes the imbalance in this economic structure of the society, no matter whether it is legal or illegal, government or private it is a corruption. The base of corruption can create a role to the surplus accumulated capital in various cultural and immoral aspect no way useful to the common people except to the few numbered polluted parasites in the society. Such as gambling, excitement, unnecessary sophistication, cultural demoralization are also some of the filthy outcome of this enormous accumulated capital.

Miscreants attack Prashant Bhushan in chamber

Team Anna member and senior lawyer Prashant Bhushan was violently attacked by activists of the Bhagat Singh Kranti Sena and Shri Ram Sena in his chamber located opposite the heavily guarded Supreme Court premises on Bhagwan Dass Road here on Wednesday.
The organisations claimed that the assault was in retaliation for his recent statement on Jammu and Kashmir, purportedly supporting the demand for withdrawal of security forces and a referendum to gauge public opinion.
While one of the miscreants was overpowered by lawyers and handed over to the police, the others ran away. During interrogation, the captured assailant identified himself as Inder Verma, president of Shri Ram Sena's Delhi unit. He purportedly revealed the name of another assailant as Tajinder Pal Singh Bagga, president of the Bhagat Singh Kranti Sena.

The five-legged elephant

Looking back at Shankar Guha Niyogi, 20 years after his assassination.

On September 28, 1991, Shankar Guha Niyogi put aside his copy of Lenin on Trade Unions and Revolutions, and fell asleep under a mosquito net in his room on the ground floor of an apartment in the Bhilai industrial township. In the early hours of the morning, a young man rode up to the house, looked in through the bedroom's well-lit window and shot him dead.

Protests against Wall Street spread across U.S.


A movement that has no single message, no leader and no list of demands is nonetheless gaining steam across the U.S. with protesters from California to Maine expressing their anger with the U.S. economy and corporate greed.
The so-called Occupy Wall Street protests are now in their 18th day after an initial protest organized by Adbusters called on demonstrators to occupy New York's business district.
Since then, protesters ranging from students worried about their tuition loans, to union employees and laid off middle-aged workers have joined up.
In Manhattan they are camping out in a park near the New York Stock Exchange. On Monday, hundreds of protesters dressed up as money-hungry zombies, wandering past the NYSE clutching fistfuls of cash.
Rosie Gray, a reporter with New York'sVillage Voice newspaper, said the movement, which has sparked demonstrations in Boston, St. Louis, Kansas City, Mo. and L.A., appears to have struck a chord with many Americans.
