I like your comments. Economist Richard D. Wolf has just published his new book, entitled "UNDERSTANDING SOCIALISM". Readers might wish to read this. Richard D. Wolf is not your usual economist.

Richard Leonard Silk of the NYT years ago published several common sense books on economics. I taught ECONOMICS FROM FEUDALISM TO THE PRESENT for two decades and prefer Groucho Marx to Karl Marx who, not so incidentally was subsidized by his friend Engels, who was running a factory in, I believe, Birmingham. As part of Marxist communality, Karl got his housemaid pregnant. Karl mistakenly placed class above nationalism and his theory that only workmen’s labor provided value to products was wrong headed.
