    Capital, Volume III introduces some analysis on this topic, but Marx’s conclusion seem to imply that if you have a single dollar in 401(k), you are bourgeois, but CEO without company shares is class-traitor worker.

    Marx failed to consider the 401(k) no-choice

    You’d have to wonder how they don’t simply self combust from cognitive dissonance when worshipping models like the laffer curve that have the scientific rigour of ‘it came to me in a dream’ while trying to nitpick shit like this. Capitalism didn’t come fully formed with a neat date, so Marx is full of shit actually smuglord
