--NTUF Releases Study that Finds Marxism Alive & Well in America This May Day--

(Alexandria, VA) -- The massive May Day military parades of the Cold War era are harder to find in Communist nations today, but die-hard fans of Karl Marx can still take heart. According to an exhaustive statistical and historical comparison conducted by the non-partisan National Taxpayers Union Foundation (NTUF), America's federal government has gradually come to march
in lock-step with all of the ten principles outlined in the landmark
political document, The Communist Manifesto.

"Marxism has lost the ideological battle in the United States, but in many senses it has won the political war," observed NTUF Director of Programs and study author Mark Schmidt. "One need not be a Cold Warrior or a McCarthyite to ponder the prominent role that Karl Marx¹s utopian vision plays in American contemporary society."

Schmidt links Marx's principles, from centralization of credit to
"industrial armies," with policies in force in America today, like
Government-Sponsored Enterprises and forced union dues.
