Re: Marxist Fianancial Advice

I can't believe that I'm the only one to see the oxymoron in the question.
As for making fun, or being insulting,  is it possible that people are
really that thin-skinned that they can't see the non-sequitors in their own
proposals and questions?     Can't laugh at themselves?  Can't laugh with
others laughing at them?  I thought we were made of sterner stuff.

Doesn't anybody have a sense of humor out there.  And as the surrealists
correctly pointed out, there is no humor without some element of cruelty.

After what has transpired on, and off, the list over the Doss-Proyect
conflict, my comments were truly benign-- I actually went through it twice
to tone it down.

Damn, you should see how we do it on the railroad.

And I stand by what I said:  behind every free market, behind every
investment instrument there's a death squad.  Plain and simple.

doesn't have anything to add on this subject. Honest answer for an honest
question. Why make fun?
