Capitalism's Triumph

[RangerCat67 at aol.com]

<< 'Popular Marxism' took Marx's more prophetic writings on the fate of 
capitalism, without noting that Marx had not given a timescale. If socialism 
is destined to usurp capitalism, but the transition period could last many 
hundreds of years, as the transitions between previous modes of production 
like feudalism and capitalism had lasted, then the prediction is not entirely 
helpful.  >>

Then why all that talk about the Revolution in Engels's eulogy for Marx?
