    Risks of Joining Communist Party in the USA

    Hi all, I've been considering joining the PCUSA or PLS, but am afraid of being discriminated against when finding a job or internship. I'm wondering if anyone here can provide their personal experience with being in a communist or socialist party in the USA, and whether or not I should wait until after finding a job to join one?
