Marx did not want labor and workers to be exploited. Today, Democrats don’t care about the workers, they care about the State. Democrats exploit real and perceived needs of the economic lower class as a basis for extracting or taking earned income with the stated goal of redistributing it to the poor. But, look how it is never enough and Democrats keep demanding more. Democrats and their cronies get wealthier and more powerful off of the taxpayer. We are seeing this play out in New York, California, and Illinois.
Marx: “From each according to his ability to each according to his needs..” Yet there is never enough so Democrats go after more. Why this fails is because people leave areas of high taxes or, worse, they lose incentive to earn.
