This book is absolutely filled with historical data and will utterly debunk many of the falsehoods you’ve attempted to deploy here (under this and your other nom-de-plume.)

Absolutely Fantastic book! I just picked it up and ploughed through half of it in the past couple days.
fyi- Graeber is one of the architects of Occupy[/quote]
Arraya: Yup, you enjoying this book makes perfect sense. I did know of Graeber’s involvement with Occupy, you’re also undoubtedly aware that he’s an Old School Anarchist, too. His writings on Anarchy are especially good.
I read his book as something of a tetralogy, including Niall Ferguson’s “Ascent of Money” and two of Satyijit Das’ books: “Traders, Guns and Money” and “Extreme Money.”
If you choose to read all four, I’d strongly recommend having copious amounts of alcohol close at hand. Kidding aside, all four of these strongly support some of your postings regarding “end stage capitalism.”
