If you consider yourself a Marxist, Anarchist, Fascist, Libertarian, Socialist, or a member of any other minority political party, please explain your views in one or two paragraphs. I'm quite interested in alternate ideology so please enlighten me as to the reasons you believe in your specific ideology.
P.S. I am Marxist, but Marxists should still share there beliefs.

I started out democratic socialist because I believed true political equality could not be achieved without economic equality.
Later, when I was doing research on the history of Israel, I read about the Israeli labor union Histadrut. Here was a union so powerful that it actually owned its own companies and was one of the largest employers in the country. I was very impressed with the possibility of powerful unions.
One July 4, during a strike at GM, I wrote up a version of the Declaration of Independence in which the employees of the company declared independence from the CEO and big shareholders. A person who read it told me it sounded like an anarcho-syndicalist treatise.
That was the first time I heard of it, so I looked it up. I had never taken anarchism seriously before. Direct democracy, direct action, decentralized democracy. They had a lot of appeal and seemed to answer a lot of the objections raised by anarcho-capitalists, who seemed to be very popular on the internet.
I believe in democratically run companies operating in a market economy. I think anarcho-syndicalism comes closest to what would make an economy work, while at the same time, minimizing suffering caused by economic scarcity.

I'm with the National Income Party, and running for President. I have a platform that puts the gov to for a profit like you do for your employer. This is an outline of what I will do fix the problems of the country.
1st90 days by Executive Order
Establish Earth Rights for all of America like in Alaska
End income taxes; fund the Gov the right way, not on our backs
End tax paper work for the citizens, not business
End all welfare programs, save the money
Balance the budget, officials are not paid till it’s done
Regular people for elected officials, no lawyers or rich
End lobbyists, take the money out of politics
Make graft illegal, have mandatory jail time
Close the DOE, save the money
Take the Gov out of the schools, PTA run save money
Set Iraq’s oil to pay for the war, make an exit plan with the military
Prisoners work for jail costs, not us, save the money
Make foreign tax cheats pay, tariff goods @retail every container
Register the illegals, put them to work and on the tax roles not us
Private SS accounts, makes us millionaires, no government access to money
After90 days by Executive Order
Build renewable power, make millions of high wage jobs
Build a fund from foreign power bills like Alaska uses to PAY us
End Nuclear power
Build electric powered roads, make more millions of high wage jobs
Thousands of jobs building electric cars &trucks
End our dependence on foreign oil
Clean the polluted water with clean electric power
Return America to 50% of world’s economy
Read my blog on my 360 page to learn more about the hows and why of this plan.www.permanentenergy.com it’s down and being moved to yahoo

The Green Party is a good alternative, if only because they care about the environment.
