[edit] Warnings — June 2008
Removing whole sections of articles simply because you'd rather that the reader not be exposed to them, as you did to “Marginal utility” and then to “Marginalism” is regarded as vandalism and as a violation of Wikipedia's position on point-of-view; such behavior will get your account blocked from further editing.
Further, the argument that you inserted into “Marginal utility” violates Wikipedia's policy against “original research”, and is incompetent on multiple levels. For example, Ricardo is not the creator of the labour theory of value either (and, indeed, Ricardo used it as nothing more than a useful approximation). —SlamDiego←T 00:35, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
- Not really. The fact is you are an incompetent crank who probably simply failed in academia and now goes around the internet misinforming people in a pathetic attempt to make up for your own deficiencies. And despite what you say the concept of marginal utility you are espousing is BS and will be exposed as utter BS. And your claim about Ricardo is a lie.

- Were you better versed in Marx, then you'd know that he attributed the labor theory of value to Benjamin Franklin's A Modest Enquiry into the Nature and Necessity of a Paper Currency (1729). (And were you better versed in the history of economic thought more generally, then you'd know that William Petty had used the theory more than 60 years before Franklin.) Further, the chapter that you cite of Ricardo doesn't disprove the point that he just used a labor theory as an approximation. (No one here has denied that Ricardo fell in the more general category of theorists who believed that cost determined price.) —SlamDiego←T 06:14, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
[edit] June 2008
Please don't make personal attacks as you did in these two edits. Such action is considered vandalism of a user page. Consider yourself warned. -Phoenixrod (talk) 04:43, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
