Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

Incorrect phrasing on my part. Instead of 'holders of the WMPs' I should have said 'originators', although low level members of the CPC may be 'investors'. Do you have knowledge of the current structure and extent of the CPC. Do they currently aspire to have a large portion of the population as members? Are there junior branches like the old Komsomol with little power within the party but important for spreading the word?

According to wikipedia apparently yes. 80 million members and up from 60 million in 2000.
