economics: the major means of production will be owned by the centralised government. heavy industry, oil, coal, communications and transport will all be owned by the state. the only fields that would be allowed private enteprise would be entertainment and the consumer industry. this would allow for new ideas in these two industries. however, all land would still be owned by the state and would be rented out to private investors. there would also be strict government controls for these industries involving a minimum wage so no worker will be exploited.
health and education: these will both be absolutly free. there will be NO private health care industry and there will be NO private schools. health and education will be subsidised by taxes and state profits from rich industries like oil. the education will involve normal education principles plus strict marxist-leninist-stalinist teachings.
politics: the communist party will be the only party and it will be open to anyone. anyone who wants to make descisons in running the country, will have to join the party. all aplicants will be screened to make sure they are not infultrators. the party will be a dictatorship of the prolatriat. the party will be a party for the prolateriat, run by the prolatariat. again, anyone is free to apply for party membership but not everyone will get in. a special party police service will investigate all applicants and will stamp out courruption.
party structure: each local district will elect a local communist party official as there representative in there local supreme soviet. using england as an example. each city or large town will have a supreme soviet. so there will be supreme soviets in birmingham, london, manchester etc. the supreme soviet will be responsible for local matter socially and economically. each workplace will have its own communist organisation and will elect a representative to discuss the local economic output with there supreme representative. this will be the same for fields like education. students will elect a representative to discuss education with there local supreme soviet representative. all in all, there will be about 500-1000 members of the supreme soviets of the country. these officials will then vote on the members of the central comitee of the communist party. the ss (supreme soviet) officials will discuss the elections with there local representative to keep the process democratic. when it all said and done, there will be a central comitte of about 50-100 members who put forward various government policies. also, the cc will elect about 6-12 members to the politburo of the central comitee of the communist party. the cc will also elect the genral secratary of the politburo. he will be effectivly the dictator of the prolateriat but the centrally democratic process in which he got there will mean all of is descisions will be the descisons of the majority, the prolateriat. when he announces a new government policy, it will first go to the poliburo, then the cc, then the ss, then the local workers council and finally to the population of the country. and ultimatly, if they don't like it, it doesn't happen. these will only happen on social issues however. on economic and foreign policiy issues, the power must be in the hands of those who have the most knowledge about the issues at hand. if the genral secratary's desicion is overruled by the majority, cc representatives have the power to call for a referendum on the issue at hand (again, apart from foreign policy and the economy).
the military: the military will go on the leninst principle that, in the event of war, the person os the most imprtant weapon. military service will be compulsery for all males over the age of 18. the military will have 4 seperate institutions- the peoples army, the peoples navy, the peoples air-force and the strategic rocket force. the military will recieve about 15% of the gross domestic product as it is one of the most important industries in a communist nation. the economy will be suited to heavy industry and will suit a military more of power than technology. the military WILL be used to promote communism across the globe.
the secret service: the secret service will also be one of the main beneficarie of the socialist economy. the secret service will contain 6 departments- ideology, corruption, counter espionage, espionage, foreign intelligence, communications. the idological department will screen all aplicants of the communist party to make sure they are ideologically pure. the corruption departmant will investigate all aspects of the commuinist party and the economy so to stamp out black market activities. counter espionage will focus on routing out spies. espionage will place spies. foreign intelligence will work closely with espionage and will mainly be responcible for protecting communist interests abroad. communications will mainly be a scientific department trying to make new ways of tapping phones etc.
social issues: all social issues will be in the hands of the people. the party will make recomendations but the cc can overrule and call for a referendum. the party will make the following recomendations: the immediate ban of abortion unless the mothers life is threatned, the immediate ban of homosexuality, the immediate ban of all bourgeois sports such as golf and yaughting, the end to immigration and the promotion of econocmic relif for third world countries instead, the introduction of the death penalty, an immediate ban on organised religion, an immediate ban on all non-communist parties and a ban on all communist parties that promote fascism and zionism (this will not be up for referendum).
treatment of workers: wages will be divided by the marxist principle of each according to his ability, each according to his needs. the communist party will be responsible for sorting out the wage structure of each individual field. eg there will be a minimum wage for each individual field and the further you advance, the more benefits you get. but becasue out goal is to create a classless sociaty, rewards will be material possesions rather than money. and as soon as the recipient dies, the possesions become property of the state.
well there you have it. my communist government would look something like that. apologies for the length of the post but i would like your input to the structure of my government. i will be back to finish it off later.
health and education: these will both be absolutly free. there will be NO private health care industry and there will be NO private schools. health and education will be subsidised by taxes and state profits from rich industries like oil. the education will involve normal education principles plus strict marxist-leninist-stalinist teachings.
