i remember back in 2006 when you mentioned Karl Marx in your sociology class. i developed a new understanding for this revolutionary author/philosopher who influenced socioeconomic change. i am trying to delve back into those lectures and to develop a working knowledge of what marxism is, mainly due to the negative ads tying Obama to Marxism, Communism, and even Che Guevara. Obama's quotes of "spreading the wealth", and making the wealthy pay more taxes seem to anger many republicans I know - including my dad. why would anyone in their right mind be angry if the wealthiest people have to forego a Filet Mignon and Lobster dinner for one night so the poorest people can have a decent meal for a week? those angry republicans will only benefit from these tax breaks - what is wrong with them. many have criticized the Marxist philosophy. i am supposing that they don't realize Marxism is in fact supporting them - the working class. or am I wrong myself?
