Nothing Is So Retentive As A Nation's

The Capitalist Process Shapes Things And Souls For Socialism.

Surely, Nothing Can Be More Plain Or Even More Trite Common Sense Than The Proposition That Innovation [...] Is At The Center Of Practically All The Phenomena, Difficulties, And Problems Of Economic Life In Capitalist Society.

The Essential Point To Grasp Is That In Dealing With Capitalism We Are Dealing With An Evolutionary Process

As A Matter Of Fact, Capitalist Economy Is Not And Cannot Be Stationary. Nor Is It Merely Expanding In A Steady Manner. It Is Incessantly Being Revolutionized From Within By New Enterprise, I.e., By The Intrusion Of New Commodities Or New Methods Of Production Or New Commercial Opportunities Into The Industrial Structure As It Exists At Any Moment.

This Civilization Is Rapidly Passing Away, However. Let Us Rejoice Or Else Lament The Fact As Much As Everyone Of Us Likes; But Do Not Let Us Shut Our Eyes To It.
