Socialism

Trapped in a senseless economy that condemns millions to agonising death by starvation yet that at the same time produces millions of millionaires, that supports dictators and repressive regimes, erodes democracy, represses dissent and unleashes unprovoked wars of aggression and threatens atomic warfare on its strategic rivals, a system that controls debate through the concentration of news resources, smothers critical thought in a fog of publicity masquarading as investigative news, camoflages embedded propaganda and calls it truth, exploits the working people more and more each year whilst charging us more and more for life's basics, creates speculative bubbles to generate profits for a tiny strata of parasites and calls the losers feckless layabouts, supports goverments that deliberately starve beseiged populations, murder children and bomb civilians, that creates tons upon tons of pointless merchandise that are shipped around the world in search of profit if not then are dumped at sea, that creates inequality by design that revels in the destruction it engenders.

And its grinning supporters have the termierity to ask, "Well what would you do? This is the best system we've got. There is no alternative. You're a dreamer."

Three things - two practical one theoretical. 1. Once installed in power, seize all funds from speculation and divert to producing clean running water for those who need it. 2. A world wide conference on agriculture to plan a livable World agricultural policy based on local need not distant profit. 3. Don't change yourself - change those around you to a new socialist way of thinking.

It's got to be better than this endless fuck up.
