It's the key problem indeed. It is not the party leadership who wants to alter your way of life. It's the life that is changing. Automation, solar, energy storage and an increasing tension between finite resources and exponential growth all are altering their way of life. It is ok to want to stick to way things have worked in the past but it is not ok to ignore the world as it changes around you. In twenty years, the world as they know it will be gone. The longer that simple fact is ignored the harder the fall becomes once reality can no longer ignored.
