Strong organized labor is a de facto part of the Democratic party. The Democratic party really has become synonymous with the Federal Government itself, as their purposes of building power at the expense of individual sovereignty appear to be fairly close in alignment.
What will get us somewhere is allowing people to realize that each of us is responsible for his or her own advancement in life. Sitting on the couch watching sports and reality TV every afternoon and evening has consequences. Majoring in bullshit ethnic and cultural studies in college has consequences.
Measures like the minimum wage, welfare, the Community Reinvestment Act, and food stamps mask the relationship between real world actions and their economic consequences. This misalignment causes markets to warp more and more over time. To compensate, new mastermind policies are created to mask those effects. Eventually the economic dislocation becomes so bad that the system fails. This is what happened to Greece. This is what's happening in the US wrt the Debt.
