      I’d say the fact that people are rejecting capitalism is an important finding. People might not have a solid understanding of what socialism is, but they do know that they don’t like the system they live under currently. That creates potential for positive change going forward.

          At the end of the day it’s up to communists who have sufficient understanding of political theory to educate people who are becoming disillusioned, and guide them towards effective methods for effecting change.

          It’s worth noting that the capitalist system cannot be separated from the political system. The government necessarily represents the interests of the class that holds power, and that’s the capitalist class in a capitalist society. In order for the government to regulate business it must be a government that represents the working majority.
