==================

Nay, the know-how that produced the machines that produced the guns....................

Bloody recursions.

"...[T]he accumulation of the skill and knowledge -scientific power- of the workers themselves is the chief form of accumulation, and infinitely more important than the accumulation -which goes hand in hand with it and merely represents it- of the *existing objective* conditions of this accumulated activity. These objective conditions are only nominally accumulated and must be constantly produced and accumulated anew."

[Karl Marx, Theories of Surplus Value part III]
