As a silent but confident communist since my teen years I am convicted with gratitude as a lesson taught to me as a 17 year old in 1969 in my parents four room house @2460 Zone 10,Zwelitsha is coming to fruition in Front of me right in the USA! Mbuyiselo "Matoyoyo" Phineas Leboko taught me about "The irrational philosophy of capitalism,the illogical ideology of the bourgeois nationalism and contradictory politics of petty bourgeois radicalism. " Leboko was a cousin of mine just out of Makana since 1965. He had met of the likes of Govan Mbeki.Five years later in 1974 in my first mass-led and militants organized funeral we buried my first mentor in Scientific Socialist Internationalism(SSI). This my version practise of non-sectarianism in southern Africa and non-partisanship second tour of duty in northern America that is ending December 16,2009!
The deceit and dishonesty of "capitalist freedom and bourgeois democracy" is hitting hardest those who bought into "Voodoo Economics" and voted for the bipartisanships since 1981! Babylon is on fire and I am coming ideologically on a high morally! As Huey P. Newton committed "Ideological Suicide" in 1966 with "Power to the People" this challenge to & promotion of "Workers of the World United ". Ideologically clear communist have a materialist, moral and spiritual duty and obligation to strategically infuse a working class interpretation of nationalism and religion. For example we forced a certain tendency to have its cadre of theologians organize "The Christian-Marxist Alliance" in 1983 at the University of Botswana. This gave us a platform to have Batswana socialists in all parties to demonstrate the Jesus' beatitudes and James5:1-6 and Marx and Engles Communist Manifesto etc are complementary! This to me as a Born Again Christian I more committed to Communism as in the Lord's Prayer that as a Director at Rubicon Aviation Training & Consulting in Pittsburgh,PA all our workers are paid a living and not a minimum wage! The co-founder of Pittsburgh Anti-Sweatshop Community Alliance (PASCA)in 2004 must join forces with Communists in 2007 to up the RDP and Freedom Charter in the Eastern Cape polemics on the road to Polokwane and general elections exposing reactionary tendencies of COPE and rampant political vendetta against any progressive ANC policy on the Developmental State! To my siblings I begged and cried to my nephews/nieces : "Here is the deal-I am joining the SACP and you stay put in the ANC etc" The answer was" you join ALL THE WAY, including the Progressive Business Forum first day you open your office in Zwelitsha". My said if American business can understand economic principles they would not buy politicians to make wars and dismantle the social contract. This conversation was in 1988 by phone from Boston to Zwelitsha! ------Original Message------ From: [email protected] To: [email protected] ReplyTo: [email protected] Subject: The Chinese Come Calling Sent: Jul 30, 2009 11:09 PM The Chinese Come Calling By Robert Scheer Truthdig Posted on Jul 28, 2009 http://www.truthdig.com/report/item/20090729_the_chinese_come_calling/ What a hoot. The Chinese Communists invaded Washington on Monday demanding not that we sacrifice our freedoms but rather that we balance our budget. Creditors get to make that kind of call. And the Marxists of Beijing, who have turned out to be the world's most prudent bankers, are worried about their assets invested in our banana republic. 'China has a huge amount of investment in the United States, mainly in the form of Treasury bonds. We are concerned about the security of our financial assets' was the way China's assistant finance minister put it. Briefing reporters at the U.S.-China Strategic and Economic Dialogue, he added, 'We sincerely hope the U.S. fiscal deficit will be reduced, year after year.' Quite sincerely, one suspects, given a U.S. budget shortfall this year that is slated to reach $1.85 trillion. Suddenly, it was U.S. officials who were promising deep reform to their disgraced economic system rather than demanding it from incompetent foreigners. President Barack Obama's economic team of Clinton-era holdovers, who a decade ago had hectored China on the virtues of fiscal responsibility, now were falling over themselves to reassure the Chinese that their $1.5 trillion stake in U.S. government-issued securities is safe, and that they should buy more at this week's $200 billion Treasury auction. If they don't, we're in big trouble. U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner promised to behave, saying the U.S. is 'committed to taking the necessary measures to bring our fiscal deficits down to a more sustainable level once recovery is firmly established.' Now let's hope that the Chinese Communists and their natural allies among congressional deficit hawks will be able to keep him to his word. And don't blame any of this on peacenik liberals. The new conciliatory-nay, deferential-tone toward China precedes the Obama administration, having begun in bilateral talks during the last years of the Bush administration as the U.S. economy began its ignominious downfall. It was George W. Bush's treasury secretary, Henry Paulson, who set the course when the former Goldman Sachs chairman realized how dependent were his Wall Street buddies on Chinese goodwill. But from all of this adversity may come something good: recognition that the United States is not the repository of all wisdom. Maybe the Chinese have found a model different from ours that also works? Might there not be an Arab, Latin or Indian one that also qualifies and need not be overthrown? The tone of this week's talks, ironically held at the Reagan Building and co-chaired by Geithner and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, finally signaled the end of the Cold War assumption that regimes with labels like communist and capitalist could not form profitable partnerships. On the contrary, as Secretary Clinton noted, it is time to move from 'a multipolar world to a multipartner world.' And President Obama in opening the conference made clear that the partnership between China and the U.S. is decisive: 'The relationship between the United States and China will shape the 21st century, which makes it as important as any bilateral relationship in the world.' Mark it as a historic Rip van Winkle moment. For those who recall the rhetoric of the Cold War, the idea that we would someday be cooperating with Chinese Communists because they had humbled us economically rather than militarily is a startling turnabout. How did they get to be better capitalists than us, and being that they are good capitalists, why are we still spending hundreds of billions a year on high-tech military weapons to counter a potential Chinese military threat when the weapons they are using are all market-driven deployments? A recognition that our tension with China is not military in nature came at this week's conference in an announcement by Adm.
