I am quite embarrassed to find myself agreeing with Stalin, of all
people! Of course, he was paraphrasing the Marx's afterword to
the second German edition of CAPITAL, in which he talks about how
different modes of production have different "natural" laws.
IMHO, dropping the word "natural" is a step forward, even
though Marx didn't mean it the way we do (rather, he saw
capitalism has acting as if it were a "second nature").

in pen-l solidarity,
