Doug, that I think that the big capitalists do understand their interest. The small ones to whom the Wall Street Journal appeals on their editorial page do not. We were just discussing yesterday how major businesspeople appreciate Marxist analysis.
Yes, because they appreciate class analysis, and they know which side of the class divide they're on. But social democracy blurs class lines, weakens social discipline, reduces the power of bosses, raises wages, etc. - so it's no wonder they don't like it.
