Re: Marx and Keynes on Unemployment



In a naive attempt to cut through some haze, it seems that as long as
people have access to the means of production (be they land, seeds,
factories or reeds) and motivations, they will work.  Unemployment above a
deviant min. is therefore always structural, i.e. a property of any given
system.  Without such access to production people starve or are otherwise
inconvenienced.  This arises from de jure property rights,
over-population, natural disasters, among others.
