Image that pops to mind is training a dog to roll over. If you only reward them when they actually roll over, dog's unlikely to do it. Getting angry or promising a nicer reward won't fix this - you've got to reinforce incremental progress towards the trick to get anywhere.

Reformism doesn't work, as show by all those attempts that were promptly squashed, like all the New Deal measures after the 1960s. Democrats are neoliberals and neoliberals will slide further right before conceding to any actually leftist policy
