Way back in 1848 Karl Marx in " The Communist Manifesto " presented very succinctly the SCIENTIFIC analysis of the then still young global capitalist system. Yes, many social evils were inevitable under the FOR PROFIT capitalist economic system . Even back then Marx and his partner Engels had observed that RECESSION could be expected every 10 years . If there is any one big law in the Universe it is this : NOTHING lasts forever. Everything contains the seeds of its own destruction . Yet bourgeois scholars connected to American colleges and universities cannot even imagine a society not based on the profit motive. And they pass on their defective social imaginations to their graduate students.
