"The Final Conflict: What Can Cause a System-Threatening Crisis of Capitalism?" by David M. Kotz is a decade or so behind the continuous unraveling of our new era of finance capital. I tried to date the article finding no reference other than a comment posted May of this year. This article was cause to remember some pretty tasteless but funny as hell jokes about folks of color showing up on time. In fact as youth most of us set our goal in life to show up late for our own funeral. We found solace in knowing the Red Man meant what he said when saying "see you in the next moon." No 9 to 5 and the stifling indust-reality time frame. Better late than never is cool, because time has sped up even faster. Remember when 24/7 did not exist because no one did anything 24/7 except capitalist making and losing money. Everyone knows things are on time when everyone show up for the party. The "Final Conflict?" OK, I'm there. Don't you love titles like the "Final Conflict" and the "Big Come Down." I figured "if there is gonna be a 'Come Down' it might was well be big as possible." Since Obama it's the "final conflict." Then, I read material from the list and said, "this is alright." A couple of "Communist Manifesto's" - read out loud in a class, a little Engels there and Marx being the "time keeper" and we got a good song for the public. site. _http://www.peopleofcolororganize.com/theory/final-conflict-systemthreatening-crisis-capitalism/_ (http://www.peopleofcolororganize.com/theory/final-conflict-systemthreatening-crisis-capitalism/) I have in mind articles like "The End of Value1" by Jim Davis at jd AT gocatgo DOT com; various articles by Michael Hudson, CKL and hundreds of articles submitted to the list during the past decade. Its interesting that the practical movement is leaping ahead everywhere, by acquiring one form of Marxism or another. Then, again the American melting pot has always been a slow simmering stew with different ingredients.
