I am sure people really, really believed that our western capitalist systems could change; specially with somebody like a "liberal" president in the United States.
The fact that for the last 150 years the same two political streams (centre-right liberals and right wing conservatives) have ruled the world really points to how easily and how well western society can change.
In most countries middle class men would rather cut off their left nut rather than do anything that would change the status quo. I am sure the rich will give up their wealth and power and help the poor and the dispossed out of the goodness of their hearts. After all, Christian values and love for one's fellow man are the guiding principles of western society!
