Says Lenin wasn't too impressed with Stalin when he first met him, forgot he even met him a year later, and then dismissed him as "that useful Georgian" goon who would do whatever Lenin needed him to do to keep his hands from getting dirty.

I've read it. It's been a long time but I bothered getting through a lot of his verbose German mouth diarrhea(which all German philosophers suffer from).creepycoug said:

Plainly, there are just a number of contradictions and non-starters within socialismo that will never play out.
Primary among them, the idea that any group of people is so benevolent or knowledgeable that "redistribution" will be "equitable". Those concepts are also horribly subjective and even were we to have some sort of perfect AI that could distribute goods "to each according to his need" that AI would have to assign value in a manner that would require omniscience.
Further, his Law of Value or labor value theory as others have tried to resuscitate it fails to account for supply and demand, which, basically dooms it from the start.
It really is asinine to bother writing a thesis refuting Marxism, if it weren't for politicians pushing it and the loud minority of economists that they support it would already be at the bottom of the dustbin of history.
