      At no point have I said that the concentration of wealth isn’t a problem.

      I have said that it is false to claim democracy and capitalism cannot co-exist. They absolutely can and do in many nations. France is currently both.

        Far too many people have actually studied Marx in academic situations for Marxist economics to ever become mainstream at the very least. The simple fact that the Labor Theory of Value is fundamentally incorrect would be the major problem. We aren’t adopting Marxist economics like we won’t be going back to a Lamarkian perspective on evolution, because we know it is wrong.

        Marxist sociology is what I hope becomes more common.
