A plan adopted by the US:

1. Abolition of property in land and application of all rents of land to public purposes. (See HUD, Kelo case, trends in both public use and eminent domain, federal involvement in the mortgage industry, federal tax subsidies for home purchases)
2. A heavy progressive or graduated income tax.
3. Abolition of all rights of inheritance. (See inheritance tax increases, especially this year's likely retroactive tax on inherited properties and cash for 2010.)
4. Confiscation of the property of all emigrants and rebels. (See land seizure in relationship to tax, drug law and criminal use)
5. Centralization of credit in the hands of the state, by means of a national bank with State capital and an exclusive monopoly. (See Federal Reserve, recent bank bailouts and nationalized banking assets - all money comes from DC)
6. Centralization of the means of communication and transport in the hands of the State. (See FCC, FTC and TSA; all roads, airways, rail and communications systems are owned, managed or policed by the government)
7. Extension of factories and instruments of production owned by the State; the bringing into cultivation of waste-lands, and the improvement of the soil generally in accordance with a common plan. (See EPA, Superfund, federal ownership in the auto industry, federal regulations controls on private farmlands)
8. Equal liability of all to work. Establishment of industrial armies, especially for agriculture. (See Peace Corps, Americorps, CityYear, National Service)
9. Combination of agriculture with manufacturing industries; gradual abolition of all the distinction between town and country by a more equable distribution of the populace over the country. (See movement to deal with challenges like those in the recent Haiti catastrophe where the focus is population disbursement along with "economic development" and "urban planning" empowered by regional governments)
10. Free education for all children in public schools. Abolition of children’s factory labor in its present form. Combination of education with industrial production.

Congratulations America. You're just about done implementing the Marxist predictive plan for global communism.
