Uber Krux I still want to discuss your idea about the end of capitalism. How can the majority of people achieve upperclass status with the exploitive nature of capitalism? It doesn't add up. Profit comes from wages. How can more people start earning profit and less people work for wages? Are there going to be super poor? If their wage is below subsistance they will die.I drank beer.

Anyhow globalization adds a new twist into the marxist picture of society. Now a country can't be considered as a quasi-closed system, and subdivision into classes becomes perhaps more relevant on the world stage rather than within a given country.Freedom is just unawareness of being manipulated.Comment
