Firstly, what you describe with regard to security measures has nothing to do with communism - and everything to do with fascism. Keep in mind that regulations that are now imposed on everything as a result of 9/11 are done by presidential decree. Whatever GW wants, he gets - its definitely scary. He can even start a war without congress's aproval if he so desires. Thats fascism.

In regards to communism - the USA - plenty of the 10 progress indicators have been satisfied. The USA now has excessive property taxes, free public education in some states up to graduate school; welfare; "graduated" tax brackets; social security because the government knows how to save for your future better than you do; etc.

And while gun control isn't on the list from marx, it should be. Every communist and fascist regime has historically disarmed the populace prior to its revolutionary change.

Gun control is obviously huge in majorly socialist states such as New York, California, New Jersey, etc. And even the federal government (under George the first) decreed a ban on automatic weapons.

Its a slippery slope down the path to socialism / fascism. But perhaps it IS what the American people want. Hearded like sheep into opinions that are created and molded by the mass media that they all seem to glue their blank stares to.

If it happens, it happens. Its the end result of any democracy.
