(Which probably isn't either, but it sounds like a good name.)
We are for:
Full employment!
A broad middle class!
Saving the Earth!
Human rights!
Health care!
We are against:
Aristocracy!
Human rights for corporations!
And the only one of these for which there is no obvious method of accomplishment is full employment, which must be accomplished by a mix of fiscal and monetary policy—by Keynesian economic policies, in other words.
Right now there is no leadership or organized party with these goals, but everything here is possible. We know how to do it. Keynes once wrote of Trotsky, "He assumes that the moral and intellectual problems of the transformation of Society have been already solved—that a plan exists, and that nothing remains except to put it into operation." But this is no longer true. We know how to do it.
Let's get started.
