Read the article, it argues that capitalism can get beyond the crisis through "lumpen" fiddling with it. Capitalism is necessarily marked by the 'boom and bust' cycle. At best, the extremes of the 'boom', and the, 'bust' can only be reduced.
The question is, "Do we want to eliminate the boom and bust cycle through a planned economy?"
Marxists would say, "Yes".
