It's Not that we can't FEED the POOR, we just can't SATISFY the RICH. It is now highly feasible to take care of everybody on Earth at a higher standard of living than any of us have. Selfishness is unnecessary. War is OBSOLETE. We just have to convert tech from WEAPONRY to LIVINGRY - Buckminster Fuller
"There is Class WAR alright, but it's we the RICH making it (dividing you idiots against each other) and Winning it" - Warren Buffett , Billionaire
FASCISM should rightly be called Corporatism as it is the merger between the corporation and the state" - Benito Mussolini
'That in essence is FASCISM: Ownership of GOV'T by an individual, by a group, or any controlling PRIVATE POWER (Billionaires OWN #Congress via legal bribery called #CampaignFinance) - Franklin D Roosevelt
The Democratic Socialists of America is the largest socialist organization in the United States, and the principal US affiliate of the Socialist International. DSA members envision a better world for all and are leading progressive movements to fix the broken systems being imposed on us by the corrupted few.
We are building on the legacies of champions for democracy and socialism that came before, in America, around the world, and throughout history. They shared the wisdom that a better world is indeed possible and demonstrated the courage to fight for it, no matter the odds. Now, as we face new challenges that were scarcely imagined in past centuries, we must do our parts to carry the banner forward at this most critical time in human history. Far too much is at stake.
We are socialists because we share a vision of a humane international social order based on both democratic principles and market mechanisms to achieve an equitable economy, meaningful work, a healthy environment, sustainable growth, gender and racial equity, and peaceful prosperity.
We are socialists because we reject an international economic order of private profiteering, alienated labor, race and gender discrimination, environmental destruction, and brutality and violence in defense of the status quo.
At the root of our socialism is a profound commitment to democracy, as means and end. As we are unlikely to see an immediate end to capitalism tomorrow, DSA fights for reforms today that will weaken the power of corporations and increase the power of working people.
The Young Democratic Socialists of America (YDSA) is made up of students from colleges and high schools across the US.
Please join us in DSA, or your local Socialist International organization, to help build a better, healthier, and more just world for all, not just a few.
