Lenin: There is and there can be no other way of testing the real might of a capitalist state than by war. War does not contradict the fundamentals of private property-on the contrary, it is a direct and inevitable outcome of those fundamentals. Under capitalism the smooth economic growth of individual enterprises or individual states is impossible. Under capitalism, there are no other means of restoring the periodically disturbed equilibrium than crises in industry and wars in politics. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
