ParticipantDan: Amazingly prescient quote, isn’t it? Interesting use of the word “technology” in a quote dated 1867. What sort of “technology” or “technologies” do you suppose Marx was referring to? Toaster ovens? BMW 5 Series autos? Laptops? You just don’t get the sense that the word “technology” is antediluvian when it comes to our favorite 19th century German econo-revolutionary.
I’d also be curious to see the cite specifying the page and paragraph where this quote is found in Das Kapital.

ParticipantCool.
Even better.
Not only Marx but fake Marx.
Excellent.
Now I need a fake Ayn Rand quote to balance it out.
Except most of the real stuff qualifies too…
Hmmm…
Perhaps some fake trotsky?
Help me here.
