					<description><![CDATA[Can I simply just say what a relief to discover somebody that actually knows what they are discussing online. You certainly understand how to bring an issue to light and make it important. A lot more people must look at this and understand this side of the story. I was surprised you&#039;re not more popular since you most certainly have the gift]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&quot;[N]ot addressing the &#039;government&#039; question in practice simply yields the terrain of politics and government to the neoliberalized &#039;Left&#039; and &#039;centre-Left&#039; (actually centre-Right in the case of the Liberals).&quot;

In other words, the revolutionary left is so afraid of &quot;opportunism&quot; that it refuses to even consider taking political power in the existing capitalist state at any level -- local, state, and national -- because the capitalist state cannot be used by the working class, for the working class, which in practice is the anarchist position. Instead, we&#039;ll just complain when non-revolutionary forces use those levers of power against the interests of the 99%. Very revolutionary!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Even personal questions need candid answers. This should be the code of action of any Communist Party. The flaws of socialism much as those of capitalism need to be addressed without &#039;going around in circles&#039;. Evasion only implies guilt. If you are looking for a person who can address your questions no matter how &#039;gross&#039;, we have the greatest Canadian communist Solicitor MIguel Figueroa who can answer that for you without need to parry the rest. Vote CPC!]]></description>
