  • The worst part about Keynesian economics is that it scapegoats the capitalist class which shouldn’t exist in the first place. They get away with not paying Jack shit because people believe deficit spending is this neat little inflationary trick that doesn’t hurt the capitalist class on the back end because they control prices. After our debt crisis when the dollar loses its world reserve status the system will blame social programs instead of its inherent rot born of profit.









  • The sections on working conditions were sobering, I had many feelings. They read to me almost like a warning. In Ch.10 Marx quoted Horace when speaking to the then American readers “It is of you that the story is told”. At the time it was a direct truth, now it is a harbinger. There ought to be a black book of capitalism. Imperialism only imports the suffering of yesteryear for NA-Europe where the trauma is well contained in the commodities to fit the bill for the old reaper of scarcity.
