A patron of Economic Update asks: "Noting the success of the third party "Farmer-Labor Party" in securing power in the state of Minnesota, particularity in the 1930s, do you think it is useful and necessary to learn from that movement how to create a successful socialist party in the United States. Given the turbulent moment of that time in history and of our current situation, do you think that a similar force is needed to drag the country (or localities) to the socialism we desperately need?"
