    theory-gary marx failed to consider that capitalism is actually when basic commodity exchange in a vacuum and therefore not bad

      what I've always liked about Capital is that Marx does describe capitalism in a vacuum as the exchange of labor and commodities disconnected from what those commodities are and with an assumption no government regulations exist

      and it's still full of contradictions that make it fall apart
