It's certainly true that the Labour Theory Of Value is seen by mainstream economists as a dissident position, as they prefer to support the idea of supply and demand. Adam Smith was in general agreement with Marx's analysis in this area. It is a practical tool.

Mr. Marks, You stated that

"growing inequality in the world (but, within countries, not between them) is leading to more and more abuse and more and more manipulation on an ideological basis, to the point where civilization is threatened."

Can you provide some examples where you believe this is happening? Also, can you tell me what you mean by civilization (when do we have more of it and when is there less of it?)

Thank You
