[MD] freedom is for the rich

[gav]

hey craig,
sorry about calling you a dickhead...i was in a bad
mood. i did mean economic activity by theway, i just
like using 'economy' cos it reinforces the abstract
nature of this hegemony.

workers don't profit, owners profit; workers get a
wage. there are grey areas craig, you are right. the
lines have blurred. the middle class is an example of
this. but the general logic remains unaltered. you can
bend the rules of the game, but you can't break them.

yes it is a symbiosis...
 but there are three types of symbiosis: mutualism
(mutually beneficial); commensalism (good for one
party, neutral for the other) and parasitism (good for
one; harmful to the other).

the symbiosis of owner/worker is still down the
parasitic end of the spectrum.

cheers
