    My point that you seem to miss is that under capitalism, capitalists only allow such reforms when their power is threatened, and under capitalism, such reforms are removed when the threat is removed.

    Do you not see that leaving the capitalists in power tends towards a system that benefits the capitalists at the expense of everyone else?

    That every capitalist country has cut away at benefits over the last 30 years?

    Why would you fight to leave the capitalists in power?

      You conflate capitalism and democracy too much to have an intelligent conversation.

      Good luck storming the castle!

        Don’t condescend when you don’t know basic terms like capitalism or social democracy or its history.

        Capitalism and democracy are diametrically opposed, hence why you cannot have meaningful democracy under capitalism.
