huh?? "The Gathering Storm" article wan't 'marxiste' as Chris
puts it. Nor was it saying bad is good. It's saying that the
economy is being manipulated by bad people who are ripping
ordinary americans off. 'Foreigners may end up owning american's
homes!!!' it bleats. Its saying bad is bad, and that's because
bad people are doing bad things. My personal view of the article
is that its shot through with reactionary populist rhetoric and
that makes me suspicious of its analysis.

T.O, you seem to think that trying to understand the economy and
the crisis is itself a reactionary exercise, but then you also
go on to complain about the economic crisis' bad effects.

Chris, I'm surprised that you, who are into Bonefeld and
Holloway, who've written whole books about money, want to shut
these questions down with just an insult.

I don't often post stuff to aut-op-sy, but when I do, I usually
end up thinking "why do I bother?".

ho hum
