title: Américain social démocrate

> Democratic socialist politics are my politics. I’m a socialist because I want to live in a just society. More than that, I want to live in a *survivable* society. The form of capitalism we live under does not present a viable future ecologically, economically, or socially. It is a system designed for the creation and preservation of capital, not human life. I’m a socialist because I believe that the wealth of society can best be harnessed through cooperation, not competition.

C’est la première fois que je croise un billet d’un blog relativement technique tenu par un américain qui fait l’apologie du socialisme. [Alex Payne](https://al3x.net/about.html) a un parcours intéressant.
