“Real change from the status quo will never come from electing a politician—especially not one who leads a political party dedicated to upholding that status quo.”
Alan Maass, The Case for Socialism

“Capitalism stifles people's creativity. Only a minority is asked to put their minds to thinking about society—and most of them do it for the purpose of making themselves richer, not for achieving any common good. Imagine a society in which it mattered what ordinary people thought about what they were doing—where it mattered what an assembly line worker thought about the pace of work, what a hospital worker thought about the availability of medical resources, what a student thought about how history is taught. That's a world in which people would become fully alive in a way they never will under capitalism.”
Alan Maass, The Case for Socialism

“At its heart, socialism is about the creation of a new society, built from the bottom up, through the struggles of ordinary working people against exploitation, oppression, and injustice—one that eliminates profit and power as the prime goals of life, and instead organizes our world around the principles of equality, democracy, and freedom.”
Alan Maass, The Case for Socialism
