Talking Socialism: Socialism and the Biden adminstration

 9AM, EST, Friday, Jan 22, Plague Year 2

LIVE on Enlighten Radio, and, 

the FB Socialist Economics public group page.

Bernie Sanders is Chair of the Budget committee. Public budgets are the picket line between private and public society, the essential arena where socialistic and capitalistic tendencies (present in every society) contend for supremacy. They strive for cooperation, toward honoring a social contract. But lately are in an 'uncivil war.'

The Talkin Socialism Panel Takes on Budgets, using WV as an Appalachian example.

some quotes on democracy:

" (1) the overthrow of the tsarist autocracy; (2) its replacement by the democratic republic; (3) the sovereignty of the people, safeguarded by a democratic constitution, i.e., the concentration of supreme   governmental authority entirely in the hands of a legislative assembly composed of representatives of the people and forming a single chamber."

Talkin Socialism: Revive the 1930's Popular Front Against Fascism?

  Yes?, or No?

Trumpism is a global phenomenon, and bears a strong resemblance to 

the Fascist movements of the 1930's that cost tens of millions of lives

to repress. 

Joe Sims argues for the necessity of a POPULAR front

against Fascism -- more not fewer mass actions. 

The election of Biden-Harris is a repudiation of Trumpism -- 

but is it enough, alone, to defeat it? Comment, Discussion?
