The capitalist think they are untouchable, however they always over-reach, and forget that crisis are also opportunities for change in the other direction, not just their desired direction.

I think today provides the greatest hope for real change/reform since 1933.

Of course it could go the other-way with disastrous results, too... but I am a firm believer that there are better-days-ahead, as there are many who are well aware today of what the stakes are and what happened in the past who will work with all of their might to prevent those horrors from repeating.
