[lbo-talk] 75 Cents a Minute

[Jim Devine]

Doug: >> I'm going to sound like I'm channeling James Heartfield here,
but Carrol's post is an example of the exhaustion and fundamental 
conservatism that has taken over much of the left ... . I thought we
were supposed to be about  criticizing the quality of things and
social relations under capitalism - not criticizing growth and change
in themselves.<<

Yoshie: >Isn't 99.99% of growth and change in the present stage of
capitalism unnecessary, only selling disposable goods to disposable
people who are compelled to work harder to buy more disposable goods,
simply because fixing things doesn't make profits?<

there's no disagreement here, since Yoshie is criticiaize the quality
of things -- and social relations under capitalism.
