We can fix the education system in this country. We can work on creating regulations that stop banks and some companies from just creating wealth out of thin air by doing nothing and taking massive risks that put our economy at risk. We can work to create jobs and get wages increasing again.
These are real world things that can help reduce poverty and they are things we can do now with just a little cooperation form our elected leaders.

It is of course possible. During the Cold War Capitalism tried to provide full employment, education and in most countries a free at point of use health service.
Since the 80s the movement has been in the other direction making Capitalism more unfair, irrational and unstable. I don't see the forces for reform, but I do see the posibility of revolution
