Well of course they do. It's rock solid logic. Undeniable. The question is how do we deal with it? Turn the country and the world over to billionaire oligarchs with zero regulation? Dissolve democracy? Build a Putinesque police state? With a paramilitary militia that shoots more people willy nilly than OMON in the last few years? Violent revolution? Or regulate efficiently to allow innovation and progress while protecting the weak and prevent abuse, and to get these psychopaths who think they are better than democracy back down to real size? In Europe we regulate. Germany calls it a social market economy. Seems to work best for the vast majority. In the US they've clearly chosen the Putin path with the oligarchs. And you're already at war with Iran (the mirror image of Ukraine, justified with quotes that Putin could have provided) and are threatening the impoverished Cuba (so brave of you). Impoverished by the way not because of Karl Marx. Impoverished because of US hegemony and sanctions. Effectively a siege. Because the 'commies' got rid of Amrica's preferred dictator and torturer. And last not least even threatening Greenland and Denmark, (whom we will back to the hilt so watch your step). Your former friends and allies. You'll wish you hadn't done that but not before it's too late. You should read some Marx. Not only is his analysis very astute - he's actually a very good writer as well. I've found that those who scream and squeal 'Marx, Marxist! Commies!', who are terrified someone like me will come and impound their car or their assault rifles, usually have never read more than a few phrases of Charlie Marx - if at all anything original by him.
