Bernie Sanders has shown that socialism is no longer the barrier that it used to be during the Cold War.

Big Oil, Wall Street and big business as a whole - they stand in the way of the kinds of change needed. They are fiercely against the radical reforms Bernie Sanders is popularizing.

There are limits to reforming a system that is dominated by these massive and rapacious corporations.

Today, capitalism faces a deep structural crisis.

Today, we live in a world of incredible wealth and technology, alongside the most horrendous conditions of poverty, war and environmental crisis. This is result of capitalism, a system based on prioritizing profits not human need where the wealth is concentrated in the hands of a capitalist elite.

Socialism is a society where the resources are used democratically to provide a better life for all, based on ending the dictatorship of big business over the economy and politics.

We have a rotting infrastructure that is literally poisoning children in Flint, Newark and elsewhere.
