You make the earth fruitful&nbsp;with riches.&nbsp;But these riches belong to those who live off&nbsp;your sweat&nbsp;and bleed you of the product of your labour.&nbsp;Year after year capitalism produces the same problems. &nbsp;Socialism will end&nbsp;the insecurities and the inequalities&nbsp;which blight your lives from one year to another.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;For 2023, let us view our plentiful planet&nbsp;as a common heritage. Let\u2019s&nbsp;banish wage slavery, poverty, hunger, war and ignorance. &nbsp;We do not wish fellow workers a &#8220;Happy New Year\u201d\u2014we point them to a new world, world socialism.
