And some union leaders are booing those who propose that we have to reconstruct
our "national bourgeoisie": " What do you mean? We gave our life for a
national capitalism, and they betrayed us once and again! We shall not build a
class that reproduces the 1955 drama again".

This, in the lips of a non-Marxist union leader, weighs thousands of times more
than all the para-Marxistoid journals published in 25 years.

Maybe we are beginning to boil again, maybe. The working class will finally
lead the national front, and the first signs of the times are being slowly
heard: the class is beginning to engage in the first task along this road, that
is rebuilding itself, transforming itself in something different, bolder, wiser
and, er, dictatorial...

Hugs, will keep you informed after I have some meetings next week. Cross
fingers.
