[PEN-L:1049] Re: Politics versus economics

		To whom...,


	Lou Proyect has finally tipped his hand.  The idea is that a
victory is a victory is a victory.  I think that's clearly wrong.  I have
been shown nothing about this movement that suggests it undermines
capitalism at all.  Capitalists have disputes all the time.  If the FTC
wins a court case against Microsoft, is that a victory for the
proletariat?  Capitalists have disputes with non-capitalists all the time.
Was the recent GM strike a victory?  Did the "No Nukes" movement against
nuclear power do *anything* to undermine capitalism?  They won, but what
war were they fighting?

	
	My question about the economic aims of the native Canadians was
not esoteric.  It was essential.  We are talking about political *economy*
here.
