This is accelerationist bullshit. People are more capable of organizing mass movements when they aren't forced to focus on survival. Organized labor in the US was the strongest it had ever been under FDR's social democracy. Advancing welfare in a capitalist economy actually heightens contradictions because it becomes more clear to the working class that those things are good and that the owning class opposes it.
