. . . Socialism has to include workers' control of the workplace. Bernie stated in his speech yesterday that he didn't support "government ownership of factories" -- I wish he had been a little clearer about supporting "workers' ownership" or "workers' control." Don't get me wrong, I love Bernie Sanders, and will support him all the way. But socialism means the democratic control of economic production by the the workers!
