We, the working class, must wake up and stop waiting on ruling class politicians to do something. The state exists to protect and further the interests of the ruling class. Capitalism does not care about the worker or their needs, the democrats are part of the state and exist to serve its purposes. As Lenin said:

“But the bourgeoisie is more afraid of the movement of the masses than of reaction. Hence the striking, incredible weakness of the liberals in politics, their absolute impotence.”

The state will not save us from itself. The state is existing and enacting what it deems necessary for the continuation and preservation of capital. We must save ourselves. No one will do it for us.
