    Or a "reserve army of labour" as your great intellectual adversary once said.

    And how right he was, especially as we now have an economic system which in many respects resembles that of Marx's time far more than the dying (outside 'Scandinavia') social-democratic welfare dream of the mid 20th Century ever did.

    Don't you agree?
