The *legal* relations of capitalism are all the laws "it" has, or needs.

There is no methodological or ontological necessity in the use of a nomological idiom/discourse in matters of political economy.

Those who attempt to succor an apocalyptic telos version of the frop from KM are appealing to an invisible hand explanation for which there is no empirical evidence.
