There is always class war in capitalism — although sometimes it is hidden and sometimes there is the interlude of an apparent Carthaginian Peace. But the class war has intensified now because of the crisis in capitalism — a crisis rooted in the over-accumulation of capital. And, in this crisis, capital has intensified the class war against the working class. Austerity, cutbacks, the need to sacrifice — these are the demands of capital as it calls upon workers to bear the burden of capital's own failures. This is a war conducted by capitalis…
