there are (at least) two types of victories. There are those against the most blatant irrationality, things that aren't even good for capitalism. For example, even though a lot of capitalist interest groups want us to ignore global warming (uh, I mean "climate change"), avoiding global warming would make life under capitalism more bearable, even for capitalists. These are cases where what's good for capitalism (and those who have no choice but to live under it) is different from what's good for individual capitalists.
Then there are those against capitalism itself, which increase the power of the working class and other groups subordinated and dominated by the system.
>From what I've read, the anti-TABOR victory is of the first type.
TABOR wasn't even good for Colorado capitalism, since it made
governing very very difficult, if not impossible. Capitalism needs
government, for both protecting and legitimizing capitalist rule.
Sometimes capitalism requires external forces to push for a more rational management of the system. That's what the anti-TABOR victory seems to entail. -- Jim Devine / Bust Big Brother Bush! "Everybody gets so much information all day long that they lose their common sense." -- Gertrude Stein
