Agreed, but with the crucial and devastating caveat...
Marxism is impractical while human beings are less perfect and equal in reality than the system. While some want more than others, and are prepared or able to do more to get it, they will do so... and thence, having done more, can it be just to remove all the additional gains they have earnt by their own labour, or to direct all the gains of your own additional effort to help others?

Which is why communism has been described as the best of all impossible worlds... what is possible can still be better :)
