Or do you just miss me?

Poster Posts, I like it.

I've got one out the door, the other will have to move to the other side of the Bombays if he wants to buy a house, then will be closely followed by me.

Substance?

Surely you jest - you are speaking of marbles in a thread about the US Presidential Election.

Notwithstanding that, your usual MO is to post some half arsed theory and ask the reader to do their own research.

The word is "arsed".

I give your Mashman impression 3/10 - not enough mentions of RBEs

But yes, your Misconception - you build a scenario in which you can't resolve the factors, then point to it as proof of your theory. But your scenario deliberately leaves out the factor that allows you to unite them.

It would be like someone saying that a Motorbike can't be faster than a push bike, by deliberately ignoring that a Motorbike has an internal combustion engine powered by Petrol.

Let's start with obvious, on account of the number of excuses you make for them.

As for your "worker" making marbles; well he might, but not without a bunch of different expertise he don't have and more capital than he probably has access to. So don't give me any misanthropic drivel about corporate greed gobbling up the planet and leaving the poor worker destitute. Your "worker" is just another resource, one of many required to make shit in the real world, and his value is that which he adds to the product, nothing more and nothing less.

You reply is littered with value judgements which we don't all share.

And "workers are a resource" hmmm .. first of all workers are human beings, not just a resource for the capitalists to exploit. Exploiting human beings is called slavery ..
