Ricardo's means of production.......

I love it when you paint with a broad brush, <"Meanwhile, you can persist in hallucinations about businessmen all being Republicans">

Before I question your qualification to diagnose mental abberant states, might I suggest you accuse me rather of persisting in my delusions about businessmen all being Republicans.

And, might I preempt that accusation by an immediate denial. Immediately exempt from the accuation are all business proprietors, mom and pop operations, those running enterprises they started and grew, non MBAs, pre IPO companies with no ties to the Bahamas. Granted some in these classes are Republican, but they are delusional.

Dancing past your sidestep back to the point that it is a Republican corporate dream to have production with no labor component. If none of the fruits of production go to labor, management can divert their share to themselves. The second best alternative is to use slave labor, or as close an approximation as searching the world for an appropriate outsource can provide.

Of course, business evolves the big fish will begin to eat their own young. Upper level management discovers it can hire six Indian engineers for the price of two Americans. Data entry can be done in Ireland cheaper than the US. Computer chips can be assembled in Costa Rica instead of silicon valley. Oh well, you get the point.

But once again you avoided discussion Republican wet dreams of free production, and it apparently went over the head of your evil twin brother.
