The reason I asked is because I feel that you are blaming social democracy and I think you are painting with too broad a brush. Capital should serve the state, the people, not the other way around. Social democracy is in part about strong regulations on capital. We need to stand by that and support it. Throwing it away cedes power to capital.

I'm not blaming social democracy, I'm describing how people feel because they've kept being told that's what they were getting even when they weren't until they started to believe that social democracy was the problem to begin with.

We won't get social democracy with the choices offered to us either so what then?
