"Demanding that they do better" isn't what I'm talking about. The system is designed precisely to not damage the profits of Capital. Asking the Dems as nicely as possible will not make things better. This strategy does not work. In order for government to listen to the working class, it needs to be owned by the working class, not Capitalists. Everything else would be table scraps.

Further, the Dems can't prevent the country from driving off a cliff, the US Empire has been in decline as more countries have gone against its plunder. There's less plunder now, so the working class feels the squeeze the most. We need to organize and sieze control.
