[lbo-talk] The Soviet Union Versus Socialism - Noam Chomsky

[c b]

Seems to me that classical liberalism openly uses class analysis when
describing the state. Take Adam Smith's claim that "Till there be
property there can be no government, the very end of which is to
secure wealth, and to defend the rich from the poor." (In his Lectures
on Jurisprudence.)

All the best, Tj

CB: Yes, that's spot on.   Chomsky might want to take up this aspect of Smith.
