During the Depression, one country had:
- full employment and had to recruit foreign workers
- rents set at about 5% of a family's income
- free healthcare and education, from kindergarten to college
That country was the socialist USSR.
Film showing and discussion of the significance of the USSR and the situation since its destruction, June 7th at 3pm at the Chapel Hill Public Library, sponsored by the Triangle Socialist Forum and US Friends of the Soviet People (see www.northstarcompass.org/usfsp/index.htm, but recent materials are not online).
