[lbo-talk] Fidel on dolphins & the Cuban model

[c b]

As far as I can tell the role of the US state is that of policer for
global capitalism. Far from a withering away of capitalism, it is a
withering away of the state as a nation. So I think that what I'm
suggesting is that if capitalism proceeds to the stage of
'overpowering, world dominating ... state' then there is little to
exercise an imperialist imperative upon. IOW, doesn't imperialism
require resistance?

CB: I'm thinking that the US is an overpowering ,world dominating
state, now. Like you say, policer for global capitalism.  If the US
gets socialism ( not just over the horizon), there wouldn't be any
other states to suppress it as the Germany and the US states did with
the Soviet Union, Korea, Viet Nam, etc.
