"The new ideological terrain is ours to forge"

This is nice rhetoric, but what about a new economic terrain? What is the economic science european "left" actually follows? Do they ever had a one? Even Keynes has been them a "radical" for years. They simply make up things as they go. "Jobs" have not liberated working class. There are "jobs" to the end of the world, but "working class" and "employment" are structural entities in a state capitalistic system. How about the left starting to give i.e. housing to people without land expenses? Couple of tons concrete cannot be so valuable, that people have to take life mortgages to have a place to live.
