David Cunliffe Admits To Being Guided By Karl Marx

David Cunliffe is the Marxist idiot that NZers just might elect as the next Prime Minister. Is the country really that stupid? In the referenced video we see some mainstream media bimbo who doesn’t even appear to know the origins of the slogan “from each according to ability to each according to need” asking Cunliffe if he subscribes to that ideology.

The complete paragraph containing Marx’s statement of the creed in the ‘Critique of the Gotha Program’ is as follows:

In a higher phase of communist society, after the enslaving subordination of the individual to the division of labor, and therewith also the antithesis between mental and physical labor, has vanished; after labor has become not only a means of life but life’s prime want; after the productive forces have also increased with the all-around development of the individual, and all the springs of co-operative wealth flow more abundantly—only then can the narrow horizon of bourgeois right be crossed in its entirety and society inscribe on its banners: From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs!

When asked if he would raise taxes on the rich if he became PM, Cunliffe answered “You bet”

David Cunliffe poses as some Harvard educated business savvy moderate. He is not of course. Like most Labour party MPs, he is just another red flag waving Internationale singing deceit laden utopian communist.

    I really don’t think it matters who they front for the Labour Party; it’s finished. National is now the new and more palatable left-wing party, so Labour is affectively null and void now. I wouldn’t be surprised if they tried to bring Clark back, but even that wouldn’t make a difference.

    Yes- my personal view on this is that it is the internet and blogs etc that have brought the left into disrepute. The left were fine while they controlled the message. Soon as the people could speak out, they were destroyed. National don’t even know this yet and have failed to take the initiative as they should have.

    Cunliffe is a fool. Period.

    And yes the country could elect him as Prime Minister if Labour hands out enough lollies and promises to beat up enough on those perceived to have more. The majority of voters do not vote for what is best for the country, but what is best for themselves instead, and it is only getting worse. Only the few who have made considered choices based on what they have read or heard might now have realised that the MSM are far from impartial in their reporting.

    In the interview the other day Cunliffe basically celebrated being a socialist when he got the red roses and then there was a huge cheer of approval from supporters. A huge cheer for admitting he was a socialist!!!!! What kind of country do we live in when that happens.

    A country half full of miseducated misdirected fools that the Labour party needs as their vote base. Just imagine what process we could make if not for the millstone of socialism.

    The Kiwi electorate is now blind to socialism and what it means and regards conservatism as some kind of selfish, evil ideology.
    The “education” system has achieved it’s aim.
