O.K. A major fault of Marx's. He wrote that sentence about relations of
production becoming a fetter on the forces of production, and even though
that concept is in contradiction to the whole thrust of his work (it gives
a mechanically determinist view of history), he kept saying things off and
on which give modern technological determinists ammunition.
