Arraya
Participant[quote=Allan from Fallbrook][quote=Arraya]RP wants to institute, bitterly resisted, 19th century capitalism. While he seems to genuinely understand the moral issues with imperialism, he does not seem to understand how it’s tied into America’s “wealth”. Then again, most don’t.[/quote]
Arraya: When are we gonna quit effin’ around and get some Marx going in these various threads/discussions?
I’m frickin’ primed, dude! I’ve got my dialectic all polished up, and some fresh rubric, and am even ready to throw some anarchism and anarcho-syndicalism into the mix, too.
Rosa Luxemburg, “Red” Emma and Trotsky! What could be better?[/quote]
LOL.. I can’t help it! Understanding the language and view of “Marxism” gives clarity on some things. I’m sorry, it does.

I had asked Brian about when he graduated college for a reason: One of the things that gives me fits, is seeing that tired post-structuralist Leftist BS trotted out again and again.
I would actually welcome a serious discourse using Marxian terminology, as a counterpoint and counterweight to the fetishization of the unbridled/unfettered capitalism that has gotten us into this fine mess.
I believe that Marx was truly right on/in a lot of areas, but the “pure” Marx was diluted/polluted by the likes of Lenin, Stalin, Mao, etc.
A pure Marxian dialectic would provide a reflective surface to American capitalism and would also allow for the inclusion of Hegelian determinism. Personally, it would shut some of these moronic Leftist fellow-travelers up, especially those that don’t realize their “version” of Leftism is vacuous, morally bankrupt palaver.

ParticipantI like his Ideas about getting the heck out of these meaningless wars and just staying the heck out of the Middle East in general.
But while I am sure china deserves to be paid back the full value of every penny we borrowed (NOT!!) I think the gold standard would be a disaster at this point.
Also while the fed did disastrous things in not preventing the recent housing bubble (I still say they knew exactly what they were and are doing and really it’s their marching orders) although I am not quite sure why or what they are attempting to do.
(Really you honestly think Greenspan did not know exactly what he was doing ?)
But in reality The fed has presided over the most prosperous 100 years in any nation in history so…Also I have no desire to go back to the robber baron days
