I don't see that changing anytime soon. But the party must become FOR something that appeals to the greater good. This is end-stage capitalism that we're going through right now. That's a term that's been bandied about for thirty years (ironically, since the dissolution of the Soviet Union), but now we're beginning to feel it. This isn't inflation, it's stagflation. Where incomes remain the same while the prices of goods and services continue to go up. Japan went through 25 years of Stag-de-flation before emerging from it with a better economy. Because, unlike other western countries (US, UK, Canada, Australia), the politicians from all parties saw the same solution and worked towards it. Here, we can't even agree on the time of day, let alone how to fix a broken system.
