    you have someone with a political science degree and a minor in econ

    Not even trying to dunk, just realize that this is not impressive, and certainly not authoritative. When someone questions your expertise the two acceptable responses are:

    1. Yes, I am an actual expert, with extensive schooling and/or relevant work experience.
    2. I’m not claiming to be an expert, but here’s where I’m getting my information, where are you getting yours?

        You claim to know something about Marx, ok let’s test that knowledge of yours with the simplest possible question

        According to Marx what are the sources of capitalist profit?

          Just giving you a second chance to answer the simplest possible question about Marx. I’m guessing you didn’t see the notification the first time given you’ve been active after it was posted, and you could very easily demonstrate your knowledge of Marxism.

          You know, cause otherwise people are going to think you were lying about learning about Marxism.

              I thought that was too easy, so bonus question

              how does automation contribute to the tendency of rate of profit to fall according to Marx?
