There's something about Marxism that brings out warts; the only kind of growth this economic system encourages.

There are a few people, but a diminishing number, who still believe that Marxism, as an economic system, off era a coherent alternative to capitalism, and socialism has, indeed, triumphed in one country.

But as you say, the fundamental stumbling block is the question of the future of the economy. And it's not just the sort of economic laboratory question, of what kind of system would best generate growth, which is the way it's presented.
Socialism is nothing more nor less than the social, political and ideological system which breaks the fetters upon economic growth created under capitalism and opens the way to a new period of economic and social expansion on a much larger scale.

You are a part of this poem
You read it today
You sleep
Then you wake up
There is wart
In your heart
Some warts more in your soul
Like grains of sand
The poems become
A part of your being
As warts, spiritual warts
Irremovable.

You need in the long run for stability, for economic growth, for jobs, as well as for financial stability, global economic institutions that make sure that growth to be sustained has to be shared, and are built on the principle that the prosperity of this world is indivisible.

Solar System
What do the planets mean? and have you ever seen
Sunrise in the morn? it shined when you were born.
Saturn has rings all around it
I searched the sky and I found it
Solar system
Brings us wisdom
Then theres the milky way, thats where the angels play
Youve seen the lovers moon, looks good in the month of june
Neptune is God of the sea-ea-ea
Pluto is too far to see-ee-ee
Solar system
Brings us wisdom
The constellations are stars that form animals
Leo and capricorn, too
Star bright, star light
Make this wish come true tonight
If mars had life on it I might find my wife on it
Venus the goddess of love can thank all the stars above
Mercurys close to the sun
Youll see it when day is done
Solar system
Brings us wisdom
Solar system
Brings us wisdom
Solar

I should like to suggest to you that the cause of all the economic troubles is that we have an economic system which tries to maintain an equality of value between two things, which it would be better to recognise from the beginning as of unequal value.

Of course, Marxism is an example of what Carl Popper would have called a 'World Three' structure, in that it's got immense power as an idea, but you couldn't actually hold up anything in the world and say: 'this is Marxism'.

Less Than Half Canadians Vote
Canadians have no requirement or obligation to vote,
Politicians seem to like it this way on their gravy-train boat,
Add that to first-past-the-post election system and take a note,
The combined loosers almost always have many more votes.
Proportional representation is frowned upon by these elites,
They like this strange set system and they want to keep their seats,
No binding referendums, no recall in this desperation,
Your call is important to us but are you a relation?
Add these problems to the illusion of party politics fix,
Plus tax-and-spend travelling politicians with economic tricks,
Then an abortion clinic on each street for population growth,
And no assisted suicide because of Hippocratic oath
