Good points. About the second, I blame Marx a bit: He is very difficult to read and writes too long, at least, to my taste. Maybe some Marxists also feel that way so that they get stuck in the first volume of capital. If they keep reading the remaining volumes they may see that Marx did not view finance secondary. That's for sure. There's some great stuff on finance in Capital vol. 3. TSV and the Grundrisse too. Doug I think it is in a review of the new German edition of Vol 3, in HM several years ago before my eyesight collapsed: the reviewer suggested that it wasn't just ill health that prevented Marx from completing Capital. He had decided he needed to know more about finance, and was beginning a study of the American Stock Exchange. I never read it carefully and by the time I got back to it my eyes were gone. It looked interesting, however.
