Warren's theories have nothing to do with Marxism. They have to do with political science and sociology 101.

It has to do with how a society functions. Reduce our society to the size of a tribe. Imagine a tribe in your mind's eye. What would the tribe usually do, if they were going into winter and starving but one of the hunters had managed to force a herd of buffalo over a cliff and had a pile of food, but refused to share it with the tribe?

The tribe would force him to share the food and be in their right to do so. It is the right of the tribe, it is the right of society, to decide how they want to function. Democracy is a matter of compromise by all people to determine how it is to function.

And the more intelligently any democracy makes decisions, the better it is for everyone in society.

And we have never found a political system better than democracy.







A society taking care of its people, can hardly be called something bad. That is what a good society does, takes care of its people.







And as long as our society is a democracy, ruled by the people, then we have no need to fear that is going to be too kind!

Her idea that the government is fully responsible for individual achievement is a discredited relic from failed Marxist states. It's an idea that can be demagogued by the disingenuous, but in fact is totally illogical.
