Socialism will make possible greater productivity than capitalism

    Socialism is a mode of production which makes greater productivity possible because it is not stymied by production- for- profit restrictions.

   A lot of mentally and physically healthy individuals cannot find employment because they are not immediately exploitable by the capitalist owners of private industry.

    The human race must now advance beyond the capitalist mode of production- just for its future survival, for the survival of civilization.

    Of course, this transition is not simple or without extreme challenge. We need a " pragmatic " socialism - that learns as it goes.

    But the fundamental axiom of democratic socialism is simply : the world and its vast resources belongs to all of us.

  I see no reason why profound social change cannot be peaceful and orderly - and very popular.
