Is there any country in the world where working class rules?

Although I doubt Poland observes Labor Day as we know it, but their social working class made some pretty impressive political actions against their government's corrupt labor division offices......and those working poor commoners did it by SOLIDARITY, literally.  They put differences asides and joined TOGETHER.\n\nCheck the history on this. Maybe we Americans might learn something here.

Sweden, known the world over as welfare state which takes care of its citizen from cradle to grave. The only country I know which has improved its air and water quality in the last 20 years. Fathers also get 60 paid days off work in the fisrt 2 years of their child's growing up years.

Canada is a socialist country.  Their ideals and cultural structure lacks the independant and naturally occuring thought process that is present in most capitalist countries.  It isn't a fault, for them, it's 'normal' to be a servent to the government in Canada.

no.  that one answer was ridiculous.  America isnt *just* restricting people from financially poor countries.  People from China and Japan have just as much trouble.

Yes it's only a slight difference... In Asia communism is the chief underlying political movement... In the US, socialism is the primary force guiding the leftist - moving government we have had now for over 12 years.

They are capitalists. The government tends toward socialist. They are known as social-capitalists.\n\nSome governments/economies like Germany, France and Italy have not kept pace with the US which is considered very capitalism driven. Others, Norway, Sweden and especially Canada, have done exceptionally well.\n\nI've always said the most socialistic country in the world is the US because no country has as much regulation as America. Karl Marx would be proud of all this regulation.

a communist system could be democratic...there are, for instance, socialist countries now in south america where their leaders were elected.\n\nbut communism differs from capitalism in that in a communist society the means of production (factories) are woned by the state.  in a capitalist country - like the US - private individuals own factories etc. and make profits from them.\n\nin a communist country money is supposed to be distributed equally....the state makes the money and distributes it equally.

IR, or Industrial Relations, law are the body of laws, administrative rulings, and precedents which addresses the legal rights of, and restrictions on, workers and their organizations. As such, it mediates many aspects of the relationship between trade unions, employers and employees. In some countries (such as Canada), employment laws related to unionised workplaces are differentiated from those relating to particular individuals. In most countries however, no such distinction is made. The labour movement has been instrumental in the enacting of laws protecting labour rights in the 19th and 20th centuries.

Hatti, in the western hemisphere. Note that poor countries everywhere have commonality: dictatorships (rich leaders), living off handouts from the rich countries, while the subjects are squashed. We'd do better by dumping good books on these people than $s.

Communism as such means a political party in favour of the working class. It was party formed by the workers to oppose the rich or the wealtheir. The working class has always been oppressed under the rich factory owner who used to utilise them.\n\nJust like any other countries, there are labor union for companies, but in kerala, the communist party being very strong and supporting to the workers, there you can see many workers union for 90% of the factories and companies. This in a way was/is to support the interest of the workers.

Middle class baby, that is what has made America great.  For ex., Mexico has a relatively small middle class, and an even smaller upper class.  However, the upper class runs everything, and exploits thier employees ($2.40/day avg wage), not to mention the corrupt government.  You need a strong middle class to sustain an economy, and to keep a check on government power.

France, where there is around 10% unemployment and increased illegal immigration.  It's all union, they will never reform as long as there are unions.

Not sure there's a country with a communist govt, thats elected. Communists, once elected do away with elections, and believe in the communist beurocracy.\n\nHowever, there's a state in India - West Bengal, where for the past 30 years, the Communist Party of India has won elections, and have formed the government at the state level. In fact, the last chief minister, Mr Basu, is in the Guinnes Book of World record, as the longest serving democratically elected official in history.
