Mr. A: No relief is conceivable under the Rule of Capital.
Mr. B: Well, actually I believe some relief is possible and
eliminating Capital altogether is unlikely and possibly
inappropriate.
Mr. A: The blood of the martyrs of millenia of oppression
under the yoke of Capital gathers at your feet. Slavery!
Enclosure! Peonage! Wage-gouging! Surplus value!
Segregation! Lots of bad stuff!
Mr. B: SO WHAT?
Mr. A: Why, you no-good #@$%^&*+= so-and-so!!!
Mr. B: I would say that about sums us this "debate."
Now if you'll excuse me I have to go worry my hang-nail.
