Nobody votes for something to get worse in the short term but better in the long term. People simply aren't selfless enough for that kind of thinking.
I can only speak for myself and I honestly believed and still do that it wouldn't be Utopia straight away and everything will take time.
It will be a massive upheaval but imo it will be famine before the feast.
