The struggle between labor and capital seems to be cyclical. Right now capital is on the winning side, but unless we're going back to a feudal society (doubtful), then things will change eventually. I think that right now both parties have too many entrenched interests to make the necessary political changes that would help to solve our stalemate. For all the bad press the GOP get (well deserved), the Dems only smell good, because they're standing next to a steaming pile of shit. If the GOP want to avoid being totally obsolete, they'll have to attract new members from somewhere, and that somewhere seems more and more like it has to be Latinos. No way they attract appreciable numbers of them without some real leadership and policy shifts. Seems like a pipe dream now, but something's gotta give.
