== Marginalism as a Reaction to Marxism == |

For reasons best known to himself or not - maybe he doesn't understand himself - SlamDiego keeps on, in the archives, deleting the following indirect quotations from reliable sources: "I might as well point out this: http://robertvienneau.blogspot.com/2008/02/marginalism-as-reaction-to-marxism.html. There are some cited quotations." -- RLV [[Special:Contributions/209.217.195.126|209.217.195.126]] ([[User talk:209.217.195.126|talk]]) 04:22, 3 January 2009 (UTC) |

:I have at least twice before asked you not to spam Wikipedia with links to your 'blog, so your claim that my reason is “best known to himself or not - maybe he doesn't understand himself” is rather absurd. Not quite as absurd as your claim that I ''keep'' deleting that link from the archive, since I have removed it exactly ''once'' (and then only as part of a restoration of the archive after it was edited). |

:As I have told you, any relevant content from your 'blog could be placed on the talk pages where you instead place links. Obviously, you'd like to drive traffic to your 'blog, but that's a misuse of Wikipedia. —[[User:SlamDiego|SlamDiego]]<sub><font size="-2">[[User_talk:SlamDiego|←T]]</font></sub> 04:55, 3 January 2009 (UTC) |

::The problem with WP is that people are allowed to make completely baseless presumptions about their fellow editors, and voice them publicly, as long as they have some longevity and are seemingly useful to the project. There are literally dozens if not hundreds of such editors, some of them administrators. If a relative newbie were to engage in same behavior, s/he would be swiftly blocked. The lesson is to create an account, bide your time quietly while making useful edits, and then one day you'll be free to set loose your acidic true self with total impunity. <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/70.105.228.24|70.105.228.24]] ([[User talk:70.105.228.24|talk]]) 12:51, 5 January 2009 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/151.190.254.108|151.190.254.108]] ([[User talk:151.190.254.108|talk]]) </span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

Possible addition?
Hi there, fellow collaborators. I posted this suggestion earlier, but it was archived the same day so it never got a chance to be discussed (the archivist said the discussion was 'stale'; an oversight I presume). Anyway, I'm wondering how the concept of Marginalism of workers might be worked into the article. I'm not quite WP:BOLD enough to just rudely shoehorn it in there, which is why I brought it to talk in the first place... (should I just be bold, or...?) I figured I'd do the collaborative thing and suggest it here on the talk page so others can weigh in (that's what talk is for, after all, to discuss article changes, right?):
- When a business falls on hard times, workers are the first to feel the pinch. Wages are lowered; jobs are cut. Profits are sacrificed last.
- When costs go up, consumers (i.e., workers) pay the difference. Profits are sacrificed last.
- Profits are like the last bag of grain; the capitalist values his profits above the workers.
I suppose this may be too controversial (hey, I'm certainly no Austrian School economist!), but there it is, FWIW. (I hope this is noticed before the next archive!) Cheers, all. --70.105.228.24 (talk) 13:18, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
- None of this theory would be within the scope of this article, even if it weren't “original research”. —SlamDiego←T 15:39, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
History section
At this stage, the history section covers notions of marginal utility (and antecedent utility notions) fairly well. It still lacks and probably needs some discussion of notions of marginal physical product (since the mainstream tradition has leaned so heavily upon it); I have some notes and ideas on a subsection covering this area.
Beyond that, the section might explore the development of various other concepts employed by marginalism. I'm not sure how thorough this article should seek to be, how much history should be delegated to articles specific to each concept, how much of the history of marginalism Wikipedia in toto should try to cover. —SlamDiego←T 06:06, 3 January 2009 (UTC)
