I did not mean to be in violation, and truly I did not believe that I was as I cited my content in an academic style, only using quotations when they were cited. MacrobiosBasileus (talk) 04:12, 17 December 2013 (UTC)

Hi MacrobiosBasileus. I Thought the material was a copyright violation, because it appears to be copied from http://lists.econ.utah.edu/pipermail/marxism-thaxis/2008-June/022227.html. But since this is itself a copy of an old version of a Wikipedia page, it's okay to use it here, with proper attribution. As a general rule, material you find online is copyright, both prose and images, and has to be put into your own words before being used here. Sorry for the mistake. -- Diannaa (talk) 19:53, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
