And worst of all for now, neonationalism accompanies the fact that there's no left left, especially if you see as I do the Bernie phenomenon as hardly "the left" and nothing more than a wistful look back at reformist/capitalist FDR or at LBJ's poverty program, which won't happen again under any existing form of capital accumulation since production is going elsewhere - but which somehow in the minds of some is the "true" character of the Democratic Party.

It's automation rather than " production going elsewhere" that is primarily the cause of lost factory jobs.
The result is the same, of course, the steady global increase of the reserve army of labor.
