Carrol said exactly this: "For example, several posters on this list still hold grimly to FROP as an economic law, building huge fantasies on that that are little better than extablishment econ in understanding current conditions.)"
Sounds like an accusation to me-- I think it's that part about "building huge fantasies...that are little better than establishment econ" that does it for me/ I've never read Postone, but I've read all the works Carrol thinks constitute the core of Marxism and I would be more than happy to analyze the rise and fall in the rate of profit, actually using a proxy called "rate of return," and how that correlates with what has happened between 2003 and 2008. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Les Schaffer" <schaf...@optonline.net> To: "David Schanoes" <sartes...@earthlink.net> Sent: Friday, October 30, 2009 9:45 AM Subject: Re: [Marxism] Paul LeBlanc: Why I Am Joining the ISO ________________________________________________ YOU MUST clip all extraneous text when replying to a message.
