As a democratic Socialist I appreciate any rational explanations for the crises of highly irrational capitalism. Working class people -the vast majority of the country, simply must become more class conscious.
I am a hardly a dogmatic Marxist but it is clear that Karl Marx was as right about the basic economic laws of capitalism as Isaac Newton was about nature's laws of motion. Presently, "America's Mayor," Rudolph Giuliani, is suggesting that President Obama had been seduced in his youth by socialist and communist ideas.
In truth, Obama makes FDR look like a Bolshevik. For Giuliani the billionaire Koch brothers are a more gushing source of patriotic feelings -and campaign money. All we need now to solve the crisis of neo-liberal capitalism is some Koch backed Ayn Rand nut in the White house. Giuliani is moving closer to Republican leaders Rand Paul and Paul Ryan.
Most working class people would prefer a president seduced by Saul Alinsky's "Rules for Radicals" than by Ayn Rand's "Virtue of Selfishness." What a joke "democracy" is in a country controlled by the ONE PERCENT plutocracy.
I hope Washington, D.C. begins to look like Cairo, Egypt in 2011. Did not Leon Trotsky say "revolutions are impossible until they become inevitable" ?
