Outstanding analysis.

May I offer some constructive criticism?

Personalize it.  The best communication does give people the facts (cognitive,) as was ably done here, but also provides a 'way into' the facts based on the reader's gestalt (emotive + cognitive.)  Neo-lib policies have a human cost they try desperately, and successfully, to gloss-over, hide, obscure.  One of the ways we can fight them is to bring the inhumanity of predatory capitalism to the forefront of the discussion.

Darn it all.

"Foreground" not "forefront"

This (from MoDem in the comments o'er @ Dkos)

For the sake of France, Europe, the United States, the the Left, and the entire world, I hope the polls in France are wrong.

We need a model of a what a humaine society looks like.  

Last night, the 10 Republicans fell all over themselves on tax cuts.  Those tax cuts will have consequences for a society considered about life. As I type this in my university office, there are about a dozen waste basket catching water that is leaking in from the ceiling.  Tax cuts have meant no money for repairs in public universities for five years.  And, the building I am in is not the worst.

Also in Missouri, they meant an end to mental health workers that could go door to door helping those in trouble.  The family of the shooter in Kansas City last weekend tried to get help for him, but help from the state was not possible.

is a good example.
