At issue is not just one individual or administration, but an entire rotten political system. It is necessary for workers and young people to generalize from the experience of the past decade and a half. The basic continuity of the Bush and Obama administrations’ policies is a product of the fact that they are both representatives of the ruling class and defenders of the capitalist system. Replacing one big-business politician with another will do nothing. The only way to address the vast social problems of poverty and social inequality that loom over contemporary society is to build a political party that represents working people, armed with a socialist program of reorganizing society on the basis of meeting social needs, not the enrichment of the super-wealthy.
