That's false.  Nowhere do they argue that America
excludes the transcendent.  This person needs to
reread on this point what they say about Hobbes and
"the people".

So what?  I dont know what tradition the person who
wrote this is coming from, but if s/he is waiting for
the grande soiree in which the economic system just
collapses, he is suffering from the same delusions as
any millenialist.  Though I have huge criticism of
Lenin, I think he understood the need for a
revolutionary subject.
