Sorry, this got overlooked while Doer was trolling the thread.
In simple terms, Marx sought to create surplus in order to go on a problem solving binge. Essentially, problems were not solved or surplus was not generated. People continued to up hold the system. It was as corrupt as our false capitalism (better described as corporatism). However in our corrupt system, there is excess generated, but it is spent on war and lining the pockets of the opulent.
Now is where we reach our impasse, where we admit all systems are susceptible to corruption. That the very inherent flaw is in the heart of man. People must rise themselves, out of the mess. Each and every single human being, since society consists of individuals, must evolve, in order for the society to move forward. One practical example is purchase. Purchase is more effective against bad policy than voting. Boycotts are as effective as worker strikes. People need to constantly question and challenge the validity of authority. Or they can just stay home, be safe, and say, I've got mine, and befriend people who've got theirs, and send their kids off to war for the flag. Let's not think about the barefoot hungry Muslim teenagers.
Sooner or later this dumb fucking species will be replaced by post human people capable of running things with out the constant threat of population bottlenecks.
This is how I see our society.
Besides you make these cruel and unusual assumptions that no one gets it but you.
