Perhaps Polanyi's most interesting argument is that free markets commoditize cultural artifacts creating cultural contradictions. This interplay between economics and culture is too readily overlooked. Whether or not you agree with Polany's conclusion, his approach is worth pursuing. We fall short when we place left vs right ideologies along a one-dimensional continuum based on the extent of state control. Currently, neoliberal economics depends on state oversight as much as central planning once did in the Soviet Union. Introducing a cultural dimensional allows us tease out the relevant differences between ideologies and practices.

Today is September 27, 2021, a Monday. The earth's CO2 atmospheric density reaches 420 ppm and promises to continue without letup. The Amazon rain forest, "lungs of the earth," burns; California and Siberia burn. The Republican Party became a fascist-like handmaiden to oligarchs and a semi-literate con man. My point is that all hell's breaking loose on a commodified planet. Not much remains for commodification, but for hidden deep sea, bottom-dwelling species. Herbert Marcuse's "One Dimensional Man" pretty well explained the commodification of cultural artifacts in the 20th century while pointing out the role of the libido. Billionaires race to commodify space travel as their peers' line up for the joyride. So, Legorreta has it right. Capitalism killed, annihilated Greta's future.
The great transformation is a great book and one of the best books about history and economica that I ever read. Its only aged bad when he was talking about goldstandard. But the rest is more actual than ever.

Wow what a nice word salad. With lots of dressing too!
