5. Platform The exploitation, oppression and the survival that mankind is facing can be solved my eliminating capitalism. Transforming to socialism. The building of unity for peace, for protecting and expanding democracy, for living-wage jobs, for universal health care, for real equality for all those who are nationally or racially oppressed and women, to put an end to the political control of the ultra-right over the people’s political institutions, and for an end to the economic rule of the transnational corporations. A flexible, unity, collectivity, and mutual commitment in which everyone strives to win all its members to the democratically agreement upon policies, and not to artificially impose discipline on the minority. They ask for a voluntary commitment and discipline from all its members to achieve their mutual goals, which is like a coalition of the working class.

6. Perspective (Political world) They want a democracy so their voice can be heard. They want to be equally treated.

7. Perspective (Economic world) • All property and capital are collectively owned and managed in a communal, classless and egalitarian society. Currency is no longer needed, and all economic activity, enterprise, labor, production and consumption is freely exchanged

8. Perspective (Social world) • The CPUSA has the ideas that the government should guarantee all the freedoms we have so far but to also include the freedom from unemployment, poverty, illiteracy, discrimination, and oppression. That the government should oppose drilling in the Alaska National Wildlife Refuge, the use of nuclear power until (and unless) there is a safe way to dispose of its waste and conceives of nuclear war as the greatest possible environmental threat. The government should invest more in the environment and the use of clean energy They are liberal in this world because they speak of all the human freedoms and rights. he right to safe, available, affordable, abortion;
-- the right to safe, available, affordable birth control;
-- the necessity of sex education;
-- healthcare for all, including pre- and post-natal care;
-- an end to forced sterilization;
-- paid parental leave, for women and men,
-- quality, public childcare and public education. Everyone who wants to work should be guaranteed a job or get unemployment payments until she/he can find a job. We say put the unemployed to work at union wages on massive public works programs to rebuild our cities, provide affordable housing for the homeless, build mass transit, and clean up the environment

9. Perspective (Cultural world) • In religion, it is ones personal decision and human right whether the people should choose what to do. For example, in abortion they believe it is the natural right a woman has to choose what to do with her body without the government to interfere with it  It is a liberal view because the government is not interfering with a person’s born and natural right

10. Liberal/Conservative Issues Liberal Issues Conservative Issues Restriction of money to private companies,  • Abortion Rights, Human Rights, social rights, work rights, democracy
