I think, when people talk about Marxism, they are talking about the aftereffects of his theory - Stalinism, Communism, Maoism, Socialism, to even Libertarian. I do, however, believe that this capitalocracy (if you will), has become a corporate nation run by financiers of Wall Street and would be better off becoming more socialist (democratic-socialist). I recently had a conversation with my brother, who is a Poli-sci major, concentrating on the theoretical aspects of politics, and he told me that two things happen in a capitalist nation:
1. It creates a realm of necessity (which we are presently in).
2. Creates a realm of freedom.
This creation of a perception of necessities leads us, the capitalists that we are, into violating our basic laws of self preservation. Our basic needs, our basic rights are infringed upon by the rich and powerful.
Agree/disagree?
