MTJ was allowed his cheap little digs, so I'm sure mine are grand.

What kind of Marxist nonsense do I expect? Actual Marxist theory. Not state capitalist bollocks under the label communism.

The problem with that is that the only successful "communist states" (the use of the word state is as deliberate as the quotation marks around that phrase) to have not been torn apart by civil war and foreign intervention and wound up quashed were state capitalist. I'm pretty sure Rosa Luxemburg said that very thing about the soviet union, which was (promote synergy!) like a boss(!) amongst communist states.
