Henwood's theis, was Re: Immanuel Wallerstein

[Stephen E Philion]

Yes, Charles, that is an accurate reading of Doug's point. Always or
never. Capitalism is never in crisis and never has been in crisis. And
never will be in crisis. After reading much of his writing in LBO and his
book *Wall Street*, I have reached the conclusion that Doug Henwood
belives there will never be a crisis of Capitalism. What other
conclusion could possibly be reached about this unnuanced  journalist?
