    The problem with marxism is that the dictatorship of the proletariat never ends, power corrupts, and human greed rears its ugly head.

      1. The Dictatorship of the Proletariat is just Democracy run by the Workers, and is used directly in contrast to liberal democracy, which Marx called the Dictatorship of the Bourgeoisie. He essentially is arguing that Capitalists should be removed from politics, ie no more corporate donors buying politicians, he isn’t advocating for a literal dictator.

      2. See previous point, it’s just democracy by the Workers.

      3. If human greed is an issue, then why do you think it’s better that we leave society’s decisions to the greediest? After all, that’s how Capitalism functions, certainly I would think a more democratic process to direct industry would be better at removing bad-actors.
