Why Socialism
Why Socialism
Capitalism is anti-social and it must go if society is to progress to better times. It must be removed before the blight of its system has destroyed that life, liberty and pursuit of true happiness which is the goal of all decent people. Anarchy must be replaced by a society planning and striving for social betterment through the public ownership of all those things which affect society. Competition for profit must be replaced by a competition for excellence individually and for excellence in serving one's fellow-men. In short, capitalism must be replaced by socialism.
