What most people like Moral Libertarian fail to realize every day of their life is its not the system of government that is failing the people. It is the politicians, the people that are working the system. Turning this country into a communist country isnt going to help our education system at all.
"The capitalist government desires to make every American a cog in a machine so it can continue to exploit the masses through it's immoral profit making devices."
Just as every other form of government does. No government form is pure. Dont give me this crock of bullshit about the Marxist theory.
"The proletariat is that class of society which does not have ownership of the means of production."
Heres what a Marxist state does with education:
1. It reproduces the inequalities and social relations of production of Capitalist Society.
2. It serves to legitimate these inequalities under the guise of Meritocracy.
Its the same god damn thing as any other government.
"According to Marxism, capitalism is a system based on the exploitation of the proletariat by the bourgeoisie (the "capitalists", who own and control the means of production). This exploitation takes place as follows: the workers, who own no means of production of their own, must seek employment in order to make a living. They get hired by a capitalist and work for him, producing some sort of goods or services. These goods or services then become the property of the capitalist, who sells them and gets a certain amount of money in exchange. One part of the wealth produced is used to pay the workers' wages, while the other part (surplus value) is split between the capitalist's private takings (profit), and the money used to pay rent, buy supplies and renew the forces of production. Thus the capitalist can earn money (profit) from the work of his employees without actually doing any work, or in excess of his own work. Marxists argue that new wealth is created through work; therefore, if someone gains wealth that he did not work for, then someone else works and does not receive the full wealth created by his work. In other words, that "someone else" is exploited. Thus, Marxists argue that capitalists make a profit by exploiting workers."
Any United States citizen that has the willpower can rise and make money. Any american. My oldest brother is a classic example. He was a high school dropout, and was working at minimum wage. He got into a job with Heidelburg printers, and eventually split off to make his own company. He treats his empoyees well, which numbers in about 6 or so. Everyone exploits the worker class, dont kid yourself. A Marxist government would do the same thing.
"like the innumerable failures of capitalism and classical Marxist theory."
Your wrong. Capatilism did not fail. Our politicians tore it apart, and installing the "classical Marxist theory" would do far more harm than good in this country.
You really think that a government working under the Marxist theory would actually sustain itself? Are you ignoring the Soviet Union perhaps?
Heres what happens under a country such as the Soviet Union:
"Relaxation of censorship under glasnost resulted in the Communist Party losing its absolute grip on the media. Before long, and much to the embarrassment of the authorities, the media began to expose severe social and economic problems the Soviet government had long denied existed and actively concealed. Problems such as poor housing, alcoholism, drug abuse, pollution, outdated Stalinist-era factories, and petty to large-scale corruption, all of which the official media had ignored, received increased attention. Media reports also exposed crimes committed by Stalin and the Soviet regime, such as Gulags and the Great Purges ignored by the official media. Moreover, the ongoing war in Afghanistan, and the mishandling of the 1986 Chernobyl accident further damaged the credibility of the Soviet government at a time when dissatisfaction was increasing."
Heres a list of some of the current Communist states:
* People's Republic of China (since 1949); Communist Party of China
* Republic of Cuba (Cuban Revolution in 1959, socialist state declared in 1961); Communist Party of Cuba
* Lao People's Democratic Republic (since 1975); Lao People's Revolutionary Party
* Democratic People's Republic of Korea (since 1948); Korean Workers' Party
* Socialist Republic of Vietnam (since 1976); Communist Party of Vietnam
