Re: [Pen-l] I want to know

[Jim Devine <jdevine03@xxxxxxxxx>]

 CB: I want to know how this modern American ruling class makes decisions.

for collectively-made decisions, usually via the government (as with
the creation of the Federal Reserve) which aggregates and tries to
reconcile the opinions of various interest-groups of the ruling class
(the Chamber of Commerce, the National Association of Manufacturers,
the Council of Foreign Relations, etc., etc.) A lot of "decisions,"
however, it's a matter of after-the-fact results of decisions made in
a decentralized way. None of the decisions necessarily serve the
_long-term_ collective interests of the capitalist class, of course.
They sometimes fuck up.
