How will communism function without money?” asked a young student during a club meeting.
The meeting of comrades, Red Flag readers and friends focused on this question.
Comrades said that if humanity is capable of developing technology, science, and exploring the universe, is also capable of developing social relationships without the need for money.
In Communism, the working class won’t need money because we will produce to meet the needs of humanity and not for profit.
Under capitalism money is indispensable as a means to produce profits. One comrade gave an example of the way factories function and the profits that the bosses take by exploiting the workers.
Another comrade mentioned how capitalist society is structured and its need for a lot of money for the bosses but not for the workers. Pro-ducts rot in the stores and, even so, we cannot get access to them if we don’t have money.
In this meeting, we continued the discussion about the document Mobilize the Masses for Communism and the current Red Flag editorial. The majority of participants were young.
Also some asked about the differences between our Party and other parties of the “pseudo-left.” Comrades said that such groups or parties continue proposing a change by stages as it was in the past, that is, first socialism and then communism. We say that we must fight directly for communism. Many of these groups advocate for reforms and consider money to be necessary. We say that the great revolutions have shown us the big mistakes that should not be repeated.
Another young student who spoke little during the meeting, commented at the end that he had listened carefully to the views of each person and visualized all of it in his mind, making historical comparisons with what we were saying, and that he liked our ideas.
There were contributions from old friends who know the Party who have been dispersed in their activities. However, the seed of communism that has remained in them makes them look for us and respond to our call. They said that they are not satisfied with the conditions of workers today and know that they will worsen as capitalism looks for its survival. Therefore, even though now they see their participation in the struggle as limited, they are willing to expand their limits.
All the participants got a warm welcome. This motivated the comrades to continue the political work. Even though we are absorbed in the daily struggle to survive, like our comrades and others workers around the world, the conditions to mobilize the masses for communism are a daily living reality.
We discussed theory and practice, and that’s what we want, not just a small group of people who know our ideas. Today more than ever we must mobilize to achieve the liberation of our working class around the world, not only as theoretical knowledge, but as a necessity of putting it into practice.
