Greasing the Gears is a Marxist analysis of today's economic world. Juan Fuentes dives into the triad of economics of the free market, mixed market, and centrally planned market systems to see which of the three best fits for economic stability and efficiency. First, Fuentes outlines the critical piece that drives markets; Capital. By breaking down the usage of capital and its driving forces of economics, he then compares the use of capital in all three economic systems. Throughout the analysis, Fuentes makes sure to outline the biggest question to give. How are the workers treated? With this question in mind, Juan Fuentes dives into what makes the given market system successful in tackling such issues or non-successful in fulfilling workers' needs. At the end of the assessment, Mr. Fuentes gives one final address of the approval or disapproval of the economic system at hand.
