[Marxism] Alan Woods versus James Petras

[nada <dwaltersMIA@xxxxxxxxx>]

Petras: ( http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=14018 )

"The demography of voting reveals a real class polarization pitting high 
income, free market oriented, capitalist individualists against working 
class, low income, community based supporters of a ‘moral economy’ in 
which usury and profiteering are limited by religious precepts."

Here we have Petras defending the "Islamic Republic" as 
"non"-capitalist. With what role does the class place in relation to the 
state?(???). It seems utter crap. Petras is descending into la-la land 
with this article. Class "polarization"??? He's mad...
