Dear Ian,
How could you explain the reason why the rate of exploitation is incessantly
altered in the process of iteration? It is supposed to be determined by the
relation of production in the production sphere. But it is shown to change
due to the iterating transformation process. Why is it altered so frequently?
The iteration seemed to me a mere mathematical exercise, not a
transformation procedure.
