Full Idea
According to Marxists, the one market capitalism cannot do without is the labour market, which creates saleable things. Others, influenced by Keynes, emphasise financial markets, where pieces of paper change hands on expectation of their value.
Gist of Idea
Capitalism must mainly rely either on the labour market, or on the financial markets
