The sirens are wailing. The people who have benefitted from capitalism are losing little sleep over the fact that 8,000 elderly and disabled immigrants in Rhode Island will be kicked off foodstamps on April 5. There is an alternative to the barbarity of the system. To do so will block the development of a real movement that can actually fight for change, and it will mask the real nature of the system. We need to act and argue for an alternative to the system now.
Lives depend on it.
