You are too kind. That is the best distillation that I have for Marxism. As a young (and stupid) kid, I went through a Marxist phase. I read Marx and Engels, but rejected all that crap when I came to truly understand it. The whole system is a fraud that benefits only the oligarchy that inevitably comes to control it.

I was pretty stupid about all that when I was young. I went away to school in France and one of my professors was a Communist. I expected him to be simple and poor, not a pick up artist in an expensive velour tracksuit with gold medallions around his neck. Living in Europe taught me so much about both freedom and socialism. I became a conservative only after my job there became redundant and I then got paid for 2 years at 80% to stay home.
