This is where you're wrong. Socialism is, even according to Marx and Engels, the "association of producers," not state ownership of the means of production and distribution. Marx, Engels, and DeLeon were all quite clear on this point. State ownership of capital = state capitalism, not socialism...

There was an agreement between the Anarchists and left-wing of the Socialist Workers' Party that if the Republic survived, they'd work to implement a program known as "Federal Socialism". You would have seen agricultural communes alongside freehold farms. In industry and commerce, you would have...

The flag of the California Republic after the Disney October Revolution of 2017.

Gay marriage legalized: The end of Civilization as we know it? :eek::D:eek:

I believe I read a scenario very similar to this on Sovietempire.com (?). I don't really think it's too likely that things would have worked out this way had Yeltsin been assassinated. With the Union Republics having the constitutional right to leave the Union, the Baltic states certainly would...

As I recall, Nevada was sliced out of the Utah territory. If Utah hadn't been settled by Mormons, it would still have been settled. There is silver and copper in the mountains east and west of the Salt Lake Valley, after all.

The only thing that the Constitution says it that the states must have a republican government. During the Reconstruction, Northerners often insisted that South had to be wholly remade because of that clause. It didn't happen. The Soviet Union, even under Stalin, was a federal republic. Not all...

The only thing that rules out then is Scandihoovian social democracy as it presently stands, under a monarch. Shall we have the Grand Texan Union of Socialist Soviet Republics ... nah. A People's Republic of Kansas ... no. A Federal Socialist Republic of California ... meh.

I merely said that it would be difficult. It's interesting that you should mention a federation of counties and municipalities. That's a real possibility. Now, if this "Marxist" state was imbued with certain anarchistic values, then you probably would see a federation of counties and...

There is nothing odd at all about a republic having an unicameral legislature. The only reason a bicameral legislature might be necessary is because the republic in question is a federation. In a unitary state, as all of the American states are, a unicameral legislature makes a great deal more...

Nice looking flag, Blizrun.:D

I had an Atari 800 as a kid. It was good enough. Then I got an Atari 1040ST when I was in Jr. High. I loved it!

The Social Democratic Confederation of the North — SDCN (aka Social Confederation of the North; the Confederation; The North; Norden) Capital: Kiel Constituent States: — Danish Social Democratic Republic — Swedish Social Democratic Republic — Norwegian Social Democratic Republic — Frisian...

Democratic Krytocracy? The People's Krytocracy? The Executive Committee of the People's Commissariat in the RSFSR had the right to name judges and to judge matters of constitutional law. Too much power in too few hands. Scary. Sorry, but I'll take "democracy," flawed as it might be.

Okay, now I was just teasing about a gay Rainbow Russia, but look at this! The Jewish Autonomous Oblast has a flag that would make any gaysexual proud.

Nah, that would be Rainbow Russia.

Lenin marries the Czar's wife, and their son becomes Consul of the Russian Social-Democratic Republic?:eek:

I think it's funny when one considers that "economy" means essentially "law of the household." How local can you get?:D

I see what you mean. And I should have been more clear about my meaning. Once the initial investment is paid back, the payment of profit to the investor(s) continues.

Hyperbole, and you know it.
