  1.  @donaldobrien9171  Marx is hardly an expert on capitalism.

  2.  @donaldobrien9171  I've read both books, and others by him and Engels. He got most things wrong, including various predictions, which are discussed ad nauseum over the years.

  3.  @psikeyhackr6914  Automobiles have improved tremendously in quality over the past 40 years; this mainly due to capitalist competition from Japanese and German and S. Korean cars. End of story.

  4. A poorly envisioned idea; to mention the obvious.

  5.  @TeaParty1776  Dont forget also that Hollywood films and TV only have white men as villains, nobody else, who are squeaky clean characters. This has been true for at least 20 years now.

  6.  @stephendoherty981  Yes, capitalism is the most successful, by far.

  7.  @WizardVal  Now now, dont get personal--'mate.'

  8.  @steinarvilnes3954  No, it doesnt.

  9. It isnt popular, never has been.

  10.  @TeaParty1776  You misunderstood; only white men get the bad-guy roles, every other group is squeaky clean. [I just changed my sentence there to make it less ambiguous.]

  11.  @Nerdiness1985  It isnt popular, never has been. Read history--even a cursory glance.

  12. Most young Americans know nothing about it or its dark history. dangerously so!

  13.  @stephendoherty981  Not at all, capitalism has helped everyone around the world, including the poor.

  14.  @thegeneralist7527  But, he knew how to get money off his mother for decades!

  15.  @psikeyhackr6914  Huh?
    2
  16.  @BobDingus-bh3pd  Yes, and of course the value of goods is not about labor, but about supply and demand; that's one obvious fact that [Groucho] Marx never could understand. Hardly a major thinker!!

  17.  @TeaParty1776  Marx isnt a deep thinker--the understatement of the year!

  21.  @maxweinbach3996  Need to get out of communist school first, max.

  22.  @TeaParty1776  True that.

  23.  @WizardVal  Not all all, mate. Most violent crime in America has been set in inner cities with black crime. End of story. This is easy to check in numerous sources. Americans have never bought the class conflict charge of communism, that why Marcuse and others went to race and gender in the 1960. Know your history, mate.

  24.  @WizardVal  Ah.

  25. The omelet is no property rights and no freedom, plus poor economics.

  27.  @thegeneralist7527  True.

  28.  @dojadog4223  Wrong on all counts, dog; I've read both Marx and Engels, among other misguided Marxists. Wanna try again?

  29.  @psikeyhackr6914  I think that word goes back way before the loafer got around to spending his mother's money.

  30.  @JojoJacquesTarot  Pythagoras a cult? You lost me there!

  31.  @JojoJacquesTarot  A genius mathematician--doesnt sound like a leader of a cult. Perhaps your own homework is flawed.

  32.  @Ares-dn3qp  Just so.

  33.  @NikosKoutsilieris  I've read Marx and Engels works--not hard to achieve. Any other questions?

  34.  @NikosKoutsilieris  Dont follow you, dude.

  35.  @NikosKoutsilieris  Oh.

  36.  @NikosKoutsilieris  Thanks for what anyone could read in a short-stack version of Wikipedia.

  37.  @NikosKoutsilieris  Tone down your language. Marx isnt worth your vitriol.

  38.  @NikosKoutsilieris  That's nice to know.

  39.  @NikosKoutsilieris  Oh.

  40.  @NikosKoutsilieris  "I aint no . . . " Is that your attempt to be folksy? Quaint, Nikos, quaint.

  41.  @NikosKoutsilieris  Sure, Nik.

  42.  @Nerdiness1985  "Democracy in the workplace'? You mean like employees owning the business? Very rare.

  43.  @TeaParty1776  Marx had a mommy issue; other than that, he was a poor economist.

  44.  @colonel__klink7548  This is quite a fantasy; but then you seem to be on the communist rooting team, so it's not surprising that your world view is off. Communist countries are not successful economically--to say the least--nor of course are they politically and culturally free.

  45.  @donaldobrien9171  Thank you for apprising me of the fact that these two books are not one and the same. Profound, I must say.

  46.  @TeaParty1776  A murderous god indeed.

  47.  @codinghusky5196  Thanks for the 5-cent truisms, comrade. It's not hard to read Das Capital--a short work indeed.

  48.  @donaldobrien9171  So sorry you're into junior high insults, Donny.

  50.  @TeaParty1776  His ideas are faulty and derivative. His personal life is rotten but irrelevant.

  51.  @TeaParty1776  His ideas the problem--failed visions of utopia and group-think polity.

  52.  @TeaParty1776  Kant would have been appalled by Marxism.

  53.  @TeaParty1776  Marx couldnt understand Kant, not surprisingly, nor Hegel.

  54.  @TeaParty1776  Kant, like Hegel, had Lutheran values, mainline Protestant thought.

  55.  @TeaParty1776  A Pietist--a Lutheran spiritual movement, common in his day and thereafter.

  56.  @TeaParty1776  Huh?

  57.  @TeaParty1776  Ah.
