Following up on our episode, we will discuss 20 statistics taken from Bernie Sanders' book, Our Revolution: A Future to Believe In. We will use the stats as basis for discussing how a true democratic socialist system could greatly tranform economic and political inequality, and pave the road for universal health care, education, housing, food, and working conditons.

In this episode, we look back on the Bernie Sanders campaign and movement by discussing two related books, Our Revolution: A Future to Believe In, by Bernie Sanders, and Rules for Revolutionaries: How Big Organizing Can Change Everything, Becky Bond and Zack Exley ( affiliate links included). There's much to learn from the movement that is not yet dead. What can the socialist left learn from this movement, and how do we keep building under a neofascist Trump regime.

In this episode we will examine the rise of oligarchy and how it exists. Modern elections have clearly shown the power of the oligarchy to run politicates, in both the Republican and Democratic parties, who will work for the power and interest of the bourgeois class, and ultimately develop policies that undermine the working-class and oppressed peoples.

In this episode we continue the discussion of why we advocate socialsim. In our last episode we focued on the democratic process of socialism and how it could be different from the bourgeois "domocracy" under capitalism. In this episode we will delve deeper into why the economic conditions of capitalism are not sustainable, and why a more equitable system of economic justice is needed.

In this episode, we revist why we advocate for a socialist political economy. We address many of the myths and misunderstandings about socialism, and we explain what is required to build a real socialist society that is based true democratic principals, respect of workers rights, the environment, and social justice.
