May Day!



"There exists widespread propaganda which asserts that socialism is dead. But if to be a socialist is to be a person convinced that the words "the common good" and "social justice" actually mean something; if to be a socialist is to be outraged at the contempt in which millions and millions of people are held by those in power, by 'market forces', by international financial institutions; if to be a socialist is to be a person determined to do everything in her power to alleviate these unforgivably degraded lives then socialism can never be dead because these aspirations will never die". -Harold Pinter
