Two pages in and no one has pointed out that Marxism bears very little resemblance to the Soviet system.
Which gives you an indication of how valid the responses in this thread are. There are few comments from any one who is familiar with Marx or Soviet history, and not a single quotation or source. There are lots of comments from Americans who have a view of communism that is clearly shaped by bad television and films.
I am not sure why so many people feel qualified to comment on something they know, quite literally, nothing about.
