OK, its official - you're a Marxist. Marx was a genius. There will be a time when Man has evolved enough to a point where his vision of a gov't/an economic system will make sense. We're not there now and so his vision has never been truly implemented except on a limited scale. It'll work - just have to have the right enlightened people running things - like you, I'd guess. Secondly, capitalism will ultimately fail because its too predicated on greed. Greed is a dangerous emotion Envy is also a vice. The worst thing about it, other than the resentment and hatred it produces, is that so many don't recognize it as bad and even wrongly consider it virtuous. Thirdly, most rich inherited their wealth, and frequently, they are disgusting people with few values. No doubt true. As one who knows a bunch of poor and middle class folks its often true of them too. And its true, I think there's a danger in getting things one doesn't earn. I do not respect nor adore them as you do. Ah yes, if I don't share your hatred, I necessarily revere people simply for being wealthy. Sure. Now I will pause to consider a BMW driving Marxist.

First of all, kumquat, Marx was a genius. There will be a time when Man has evolved enough to a point where his vision of a gov't/an economic system will make sense. Jesus, I can't believe this nitwit admits it. After years of the Cold War and the United States and free world finally having defeated Communism, tejek declares it to be the work of a genius. I see now why Steve keeps call you "comrade". You're a freaking idiot, there are no two ways about it. Marx was a "genius". Now, that is damned funny.
