Utopian dreams die hard, so I'm not surprised by your never ending faith. The facts don't support your conclusions. Keynesianism has failed. Socialism and Communism have failed...again. Time for the world to go back through the convulsions necessary to rediscovery free markets, decentralization, and populism again. It's the way of the world. When the elites steal too much and push the 99% down too much, then the 99% revolt at scale. Thankfully, those revolts are manifesting mostly peacefully through voters right now. Let's hope that doesn't escalate beyond voting. The Kremlin is right when they say that Brexit resembles the beginning of the break up of the Soviet Union. The Union of Soviet SOCIALIST Republics broke apart because socialism on a grand scale doesn't work. Europe is now finding that out as well. How many more historical examples of Socialism failing do you lefties need to see before you start believing the empirical evidence parking itself so prominently in front of your noses?
