They did lead our last good government. And yes, I'd like that too, I voted for the coalition they were in in every election since I had the right to vote. I'm just saying that things being better is not the same as reinstating the same regime we had under the soviets, that would be pretty universally things going worse.
We're in a failing capitalist system, but it still manages to be less oppressive than the failing socialist/communist/call it whatever you want system we had before.
Just wait until climate collapse hits and the food supply goes through cascading failures creating famines affecting 6 billion people. Then we'll see when shit really hits the fan.
