" The Founding Fathers penned these words in the Declaration of Independence and laid forth a vision of what America could be. There is hope in these words — hope for a world in which all people have their basic needs met, have the freedom to make their own choices, and have the opportunity to pursue a meaningful life in their own way."
As an old democratic socialist myself -and a critical " critical supporter " of "socialist Democrat Bernie Sanders I must raise this question : how is any guarantee of economic security compatible with the nightmare world of global capitalism ?
How is FOR PROFIT capitalism even compatible with a livable world ?
I am very impressed that young people today are not brainlessly turned off by the very idea of SOCIALISM.
Do they realize how modest is Bernie Sanders " socialism " ? And yet the mainstream news media -his own Democratic party establishment - smears him as some weird old communist Russia loving Bolshevik . Naturally any form of SOCIALISM is anathema to our privileged plutocracy .
