I don't see much difference, except the current administration can't seize property openly. If they could, they would. In fact, by stating that the rich should "pay their fair share" when they already are paying most of the taxes, that would indicate trying to eliminate the upper class. Isn't that what Marx wanted? Didn't Marx also want to destroy religion? Isn't that what the Democratic Party is doing by trying to remove any religious symbols from public areas? Didn't Marx look at the wealthy with antipathy and don't Dems look at the 1% as evil?? Didn't Marx believe that one's world view depends on one's class, and don't Dems see the world as a relativist place where there is no universal truths, only perspectives??
What does fair share mean anyway? If we are talking about fair share, shouldn't ugly people get their fair share of dating attractive people? Shouldn't short people get their fair share of playing in the NBA? Oh wait, we already have some sort of convoluted version of that called Affirmative Action and Diversity. Achievement and merit are less important than "fair share."
Marx would probably like Obama a lot. Really sad...
yawn.
