I agree with the first sentence although I wouldn't use the word "dumb,"
because it's an insult to people who are in fact dumb. Instead of "dumb," I
would say "convoluted." And that's why I have spent the last 20 years
developing a value theory that does incorporate use value.

By the way, I didn't response to the article by Burkett that C. Proyect was
quoting from, because I had already critiqued it, thoroughly, in my Work in
Progress, Part 2c.

I'm not sure what Bod means by the second sentence, so I'm not responding to it.
