[Marxism] Ahmadinejad: Capitalism nearing collapse

[Paddy Apling]

Louis I disagree once again.  To be against a particular strike should not 
be simply taken as "amti-working class"; I believe Chavez is having certain 
difficulties with opposition to strikes - is he "anti-working class" or a 
real leader of a real and positive development clearly benefitting the 
people of Venezuela as a whole.  To be so adamant, of this sort of 
judgement, Lou, looks like "workerism" rather than a rational (Marxist) 
assessment of the situation with a Two-and-a-half- World country 's 
government.
