Not a Communist. Just a delusional person. Then again Communism is a delusional way of life that has failed.
I believe Piketty, like Mussolini before him, is trying to reform Marxism into a workable form. (Not that the global taxes promoted by Piketty are actually workable.) Piketty is a Communist, a self-declared Socialist who seeks a single global government. Marxism is an utter failure, and the dream of the left is to rescue Communism from it's own absurdity.
Piketty isn't a Communist, Marx didn't even have a large influence on him or his thinking. Capital focused on wealth and income equality.
Oh puhleeze. Most of Pikety's theories come straight from Das Kapital, especially the one about how a certain ROI leads to growing inequality.
