Marxism 101: How Capitalism is Killing Itself with Dr. Richard Wolff
Despite a concerted effort by the U.S. Empire to snuff out the ideology, a 2016 poll found young Americans have a much more favorable view of socialism than capitalism.
Though he died 133 years ago, the analysis put forward by one of the world’s most influential thinkers, Karl Marx, remains extremely relevant today. The Empire’s recent rigged presidential election has been disrupted by the support of an avowed socialist, Bernie Sanders, by millions of voters.
To find out why Marx’s popularity has stood the test of time, Abby Martin interviews renowned Marxist economist Richard Wolff, Professor Emeritus of Economics at UMass - Amherst, and visiting professor at the New School in New York.
Prof. Wolff gives an introduction suited for both beginners and seasoned Marxists, with comprehensive explanations of key tenets of Marxism including dialectical and historical materialism, surplus value, crises of overproduction, capitalism's internal contradictions, and more.

Eliminate money system being forced on people as to every person, business, school, hospital, etc., etc. has a bank account of a million billion trillion unlimited dollars.
Eliminate capitalism slavery. Intellectual property "rights" are a source of capitalism slavery. I invent the wheel. No one can produce a wheel with out me getting paid, money.
Eliminate social restrictions of people not able to have a sense of free ownership of their property. There is value when people can appreciate something and be a good steward over something when they have a since of ownership that allows it to be fully theirs.
Have the primary focus to educate people to have a sense of community. Educate people to be educated in as much as they could. Such as a free educational invention manufacturing institute on every street corner.
As people are educated to be apart of community, they then are willing to be industrious and do things as demand would need things.
What then you could be left with are those anti-community, anti-social or lazy people that are not interested in community of the people, for the people and by the people.
The bottom line would be to promote, bring about and educate homo sapian animals to not be selfish.
