Nationalisation under the democratic control of the working class. this event proves once again the capability of the working class to act as independent force, and build socialism. but the task to overcome simple militancy and build up political consciousness is still ahead to us. therefore, support the fourth international, ICFI, in the buildup of a international working class mass movement on the principals of marx, engels, lenin, trotsky.
