Apparently Raghu   has never noted that I have never grounded any of my posts 
in an appeal to the "authority" of Marx. That is not accidental.

I have often quoted from Chapter 14 of Wages, Price and Profit simply because 
that is the best wording I know of the case against one sort of "Marxism": the 
sort that thinks there is political relevance in endlessly forwarding bourgeois 
accounts of how terrible the world is (i.e., fwd of NYT articles on 
inequality). 

The point is that the very _misedry_ of capitalism is the strongest defense of 
capitalism: misery crushes hope and therefore crushes militant activity.
