Who
We Are
|
from
the SPUSA Statement of Principles.... THE
SOCIALIST PARTY strives to establish a radical
democracy
 that
places
people's lives under their own control
- a non-racist, classless,
feminist socialist society... where working people own and control the
means of production and distribution through democratically controlled
public agencies; where full employment is realized for everyone who wants to work; where workers have the
right to form unions freely, and to strike and engage in other forms of job actions; and where the
production of society is used for the benefit of all humanity, not for
the private profit of a few. We believe socialism and democracy are one
and indivisible. The working class is in a key and central position to
fight back against the ruling capitalist class and its power. The
working class is the major force worldwide that can
lead the way to a socialist future - to a real radical democracy from
below. The Socialist Party fights for progressive changes compatible
with a socialist future. We support militant working class struggles and electoral action,
independent of the capitalist controlled two-party system, to present
socialist alternatives. We strive for democratic revolutions - radical
and fundamental changes in the structure and quality of economic,
political, and personal relations - to abolish the power now exercised
by the few who control great wealth and the government. The Socialist
Party is a democratic, multi-tendency organization, with structure and
practices visible and accessible to all members Join

"You Don't
Have to Be a Saint to Be a Socialist" by
Ed Laing
-
What if the world
were a place where everyone had the comfortable essentials of a full
life, including satisfying work, housing, food, clothing and health
care? Plus the opportunity to learn and develop into all she/he could
be? A
world where neither the environment nor people were
exploited?
