Why Marxism will ultimately succeed - as real capitalism

[Ice]

The Greed goes both ways with unions and corporations. Once again, I'll use my union filled state, one of the last actually, Michigan, as an example.

During the 1990s when everyone was making money, the auto manufacturers in Michigan, for example, the unions demanded better wages and benefits. Sure, good for them, they deserve a little more, but a limit was needed. What they did unfortunately, was get greedy. They demanded more, more, and more. I mean, they were paying people 60 bucks an hour to cut the flipping grass!!! GM/Ford realized that this was not good in the long run and they couldn't afford it in future years, but at the moment, they didn't care enough to say no. They were making loads of cash, and didn't want to make the unions angry. So they caved to most, if not all, of the unions' demands.

Now, what's happening today? These companies cannot pay for what they agreed to anymore due the recession we are having in Michigan. What's happening is mainly the young union members are getting screwed over. While GM and Ford still have to pay the older ones pensions and such, they don't have much for the younger ones.

It was a two way street of moronism (I made that up ). It's easy to blame corporations, but there are usually more people at fault.

I fail to see how Marxism will take over capitalism. Like Lemur stated, show me one successful Marxist economy. I'd be awfully surprised if you did.

Capitalism has it's flaws, there will always be winners and losers, but with Marxism there will only be losers.
