Something that Marx said, though I read it second-hand in Zizek, sticks with me day in and day out.

(paraphrasing) Capitalism could become a global subjectivity if it were to become self-critical. Once all subjective activity becomes capitalised, we can relate to each other through objective means.

I always took "self-critical" to mean restricted in some way, ie. not blindly driven by profit and contributing to humanity in some universal way. From a statist's position this could easily inferred to be the role of a government, but any meaningful restrictions that ever been placed on capital by the state have been easily reversed by capital's enormous political influence.

Maybe some trusting or naive people believe that some future form of state could break the streak of capital dominating labour through the state, but not me.

Maybe it's not completely objective, but I relate to people who live to further the success of the most ethical money yet devised, which may very well be turn out to be the element required to make the global economy self-critical.
