Actually the police in Europe shot a protestor dead in Genoa, many more have been badly wounded, and others have had long sentences. 
 
If capitalism is so great, and has all these wonderful "solutions", how come - in a world that produces enough food for everyone - so many are starving? Why do 20% of the world live in absolute poverty? 
 
As for starting a political party, you can't change society through parliament. Parliament is a management structure for the status quo. The decisions that matter in the world are economic decisions, and these are not controlled by parliament.  
 
That's why a strike is more powerful than a vote.
