[lbo-talk] Superexploitation (Was HOW THE ANTI-WAR MOVEMENT IS BLOWING IT:)

[Michael Dawson -PSU]

So:  Wojtek thinks U.S. foreign policy is just a big, bureaucratic mistake
and is generally independent of the core institutional interests and
objectives of our business elite, if not downright contradictory to them.

Meanwhile, what the hell is a "transaction cost," and how does one minimize
one when one sees one?  Are you saying that our business class permits its
political representatives to violate their interests in order to save
themselves from having messy relationships with fringe groups?  I think
that's what you mean, but "transaction costs" and "organizational behavior"
(the latter apparently somehow distinct from human behavior) aren't exactly
lucid ideas, IMHO.

Remarkable stuff...
