    This means there is legit cause for 50%+ of the population to grumble.

    Should the government not be ran according to the consent of the governed? The solution is not less democracy.

      No no no you just don’t get it: a rational dialect-materialist examination of civilization proves that our social and economic development is constantly evolving due to unshakable opposing forces.

      But if we throw all that away and install a Red Proletariat© government then everything somehow collapses into a happy representative system that is totally stable and can never change. Don’t ask any more questions or you’re a counter-revolutionary.
