ISO forums held around the country…
Socialism is based on the idea that we should use the vast resources of society to meet people's needs. If people are hungry, they should be fed; if people are homeless, we should build homes for them; if people are sick, the best medical care should be available to them.
Instead of that kind of society, we have been through years of war for oil and empire, decades of rollbacks on workers' wages and living standards, attacks on civil rights and women's rights, cuts in health care and more.
These forums, sponsored by the International Socialist Organization, are a place where we can discuss how we can organize a society without war and racism--a society based on human need instead of corporate greed.
