Hi Anthony,
That's fair and actually the point I was getting at. How long did the
transition from feudalism to capitalism take? 150 years? Does it even make
sense to talk of "ending capitalism" over timescales shorter than several
decades?

So what does it mean when someone says (as often you hear on PEN-L) that
"there is no hope for humanity unless capitalism is ended" or something
like that?
