Trump is preparing to roll back one of Obama's policies. His intention is to free big companies from regulations on pollution and climate change. On March 14th, he announced his plan to abandon Barack Obama's commitment on car fuel economy standards. This is not to say that Obama's plan would have solved the problems concerning environmental destruction. However, it would have been better than nothing.
The point being that governments can pass reform measures that do some good, but the next government can rescind or change those measures. So obviously, reforms just don't "cut it".
No reform ever attempts or ever will attack the most fundamental aspect of capitalism; ownership of the tools of production by a small minority. It's not reforms we need, but revolution.
Steve and John.
