Marxism is better than capitalism

Thanks con for continuing this debate. However, I do find some missunderstanding about how you look marxism. 1. Living with marxism does not mean we have to be equally poor. Communism is a state where people have to pass capitalism stage first. It means that marxism is most sutitable for a country that already has been prosperous such as US. Yes I do noted under capitalism has bring us such wealth, but that doesn't mean it is still efficient to hold. To boost up more productivity under capitalism is no longer efficient because the system is holding back people true talent with not providing fair equipment for people to make the market more competititve. Such as educations and basic welfare to the people. Capitalism is also against the democracy because it is naturally providing some elite (the 1% most wealthy people) to dictate the majority needs about what they should consume. This is why we should change the means of ownership from privatism to collective ownership. How do marxism give prosperity to its people is actually the same with capitalism. That is by industry. A very well organized industry. The difference is only on the ownership of all poduction factors such as machinery and the accumulation of capital needs to be taken domocraticly including counting all labours voices. So let's say the labours want this capital to be spread, they need to be spread. 2. The highest ruler in Marxism is not held by some elite politics. The rulers just doing the role as a controler, meanwhile people are the one who making the rules. I prefer to call such system as dictatorship of the proletariat. It refers to a state in which the proletariat, or the working class, has control of political power. 3. The statistic which I given is totally relevant to this case. "In 2011, financial inequality was greater than inequality in total wealth, with the top 1% of the population owning 42.7%, the next 19% of Americans owning 50.3%, and the bottom 80% owning 7%" As the con said, the goal is to increase wealth for all. This statistic is to show you who posses the this wealth. The wealth is surely is in the hand of some elite, not in the hand of the majorities. So it means the wealth means nothing for most of us. But maybe the con thinks that capitalism system indeed has given the majorities a little bit of their wealth which brings most people more prosperous than before. Well let's take a look at US history on labour working hours. Because it is a very long story, you might search it on google yourself. The result is astonishing. You can work like this such as maximum 8 working hours per day is a result from from many labour strikes.It is not given just like that by the capitalist. We get it from many strikes. People demand the wealth from the owner of the capital, for the wealth that is earned by both the owner of the capital and the labours themself. 4. On the the drop of oil price. The company didn't just burn the excess. Usually the company will burn the excess of production of corps. Crop destruction is the deliberate destruction of crops or agricultural products to render it useless for consumption or processing. It can be made by burning, grinding, dumping into water, or application of chemicals. But for oil prices, I Quoted from the NY times website (http://www.nytimes.com...) "The oil industry, with its history of booms and busts, is in a new downturn. Earnings are down for companies that have made record profits in recent years, forcing them to decommission more than half their rigs and sharply cut investments in exploration and production. More than 100,000 oil workers have lost their jobs, and manufacturing of drilling and production equipment has fallen sharply." And also the worst case from america about the down pricing is on 2008 when the house prices is going down yet nobody could afford to buy those cheap houses (http://money.cnn.com...) 5. Free education The demand to abolish tuition fees in higher education is in itself entirely legitimate. There are a number of countries in Europe that still do not charge tuition fees, as well as countries that have abolished tuition after their introduction (e.g. Scotland, Ireland, Hungary). Europe also traditionally has higher taxes than the US, which allows those countries to offer additional social services. So this can be done by tax regulation. But remember the regulations are to be taken in a democratic way. 6. Monopoly under capitalism. Monopoly occurs when the first investment to make the goods is so high that nobody can just enter the market. Suppose under the real free market where everybody has the same equipment especially in money and technology, yes you are true that it is mostly impossible for monopoly to happen. But how about if the wealth is owned by the 1% and people need a very big investment to create a product? There is no competititon there. This company will form a natural monopoly because no one else can enter the market due to the capital barrier. 7. Medical Healthcare in Singapore. This can be happen because the government encourage every citizen to have their insurance health care call medisave. Well to be fair insurance is under communal system which brings it closer to marxism and not capitalism. Under capitalism where the government role has to be very little, how come the system give an adequate medical health care? Even Obama see its flaw and created a plan called obama care where there is an insurance system needed. So marxism is used to take care of capitalism flaw
