      I’m well aware of his work and the impact it has had (although a bunch of it has been overblown). It makes no difference to how valid his point is. What’s more his credentials lend him great credibility among those who still believe in the dogma of liberalism, and make it undeniable that if a highly accomplished working economist, shares the opinions of many Marxist analysts then delusional libs should probably listen for a change.

        His perspective on war isn’t Marxist. Economics thinking, doesn’t put a lot of weight on irrational hatred as a basis for happiness.

        It’s not only mean and unfair, it’s unprofitable to make a war on Russia.

          I never said it was. I just said he’s liberal economist who has come to some of the same conclusions as Marxists, obviously because of different motivations.
