I don't fall easily for dreams and pies in the sky.

Understand. But we are again in one of those periods where dreams and pie in the sky can achieve reality. Things like eliminating child labor, 40 hour work weeks and the right to a job environment that isn't lethal were all pie in the sky until the last time we had an outbreak of progressiveness. Heck, they brought in the military with military weapons during the coal mine strikes in West Virginia and other places. It was deadly serious.

But those changes, and more, happened. Which doesn't mean it will happen again. And even if it does, it probably won't happen soon. But the time is ripe for revolutionary changes.
