In my city, a ragtag group of socialist and union activists is fighting to raise the minimum wage, keep the city dock open to lobster fishermen rather than yachts, get paid sick leave for essential workers, reduce rents, etc, and we are doing it with referendums and other such tactics. Our signs are hand painted. We are all volunteers with day jobs. We have no money, and our opponents in the real estate industry and the chamber of commerce have millions of dollars and the best lawyers money can buy. (They are all Democrats, if it matters). We want our city to be a city for families, not wealthy tourists. But I see on this very page people saying that we are somehow the elites here? Excuse me? There is a vast difference between the socialist left and the neoliberal center.
