Naturally the capitalist ruling class will never cease to believe that a world in which they are on top is the best of all possible worlds. Do not expect the so called FAR LEFT of the Democratic Party to seriously flirt with REAL socialism : always icy serious about abolishing ALL PRIVATE PROPERTY rights in modern nation-states. And by the way , I wonder about the last time any of the bloated rich Chinese " communist " leaders read Marx's " Communist Manifesto " or Engel's classic " Socialism - Utopian and Scientific ". I am a long time democratic socialist still hopeful of peaceful EVOLUTION to a SANE SOCIETY .
