[lbo-talk] Austerity in the face of weakness

[c b]

[WS:] A belief that capitalism will collapse under its own
contradictions, will be abolished by the masses fed up with those
contradictions, or a combination thereof is no different, in my
opinion, than the belief that "it is easier for a camel to go through
the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God."
Both are fictions providing consolation to grunts who believe in them.

CB: As to the camel, eye of the needle and rich man, the Roman Empire
did eventually "collapse/get abolished", though hundreds of years
after Jesus "said" that.

As to capitalism, does the above mean that you think it is permanent ?
