Socialism is what they called public power.
Socialism is what they called social security.
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

“Survival of the fittest”
is often used to justify capitalist society, but this wasn’t a phrase that Darwin used.
He described it as “better designed for an immediate, local environment" and wrote of groups that survived through empathy and sharing rather than greed.

@degette.house.gov I’m a constituent from Denver. We need a law to make it illegal for any federal law enforcement agency to use police on their uniforms. The FBI doesn’t use police. There uniforms need to clearly identify them as ICE, CBP, etc. The law also needs to make it mandatory
