If the Governments of the world had not "liquidated" the Capital markets, then the world economy would have gone into a Depression ala Greece. The working class would have been shocked and that's not good. We can just hope that things continue deteriorating slowly and that workers get to vote for as many bourgeois politicians who promise to solve the crisis, as possible. But I fear we will not see a lot of elections before another major collapse - which this collapse will most likely be on a scale with the Great Depression, as bourgeois governments are already trying to "save" through austerity measures which are cutting demand and destroying whole national economies.
"It is necessary for Communists to enter into contradiction with the consciousness of the masses. . . The problem with these Transitional programs and transitional demands, which don't enter into any contradiction with the consciousness of the masses, or try to trick the masses into entering into the class struggle, create soviets - [is that] it winds up as common-or-garden reformism or economism." - Mike Macnair, on the necessity of the Minimum and Maximum communist party Program.
