On Marxism

From yesterday's New York Sun:

"Marxism is the opium of the intellectuals."
- Edmund Wilson (1895-1972)

"Marxism has not only failed to promote human freedom, it has failed to produce food"
- John Dos Passos (1896-1970)

"Marxists are people whose insides are torn up day after day because they want to rule the world and no one will even publish their letter to the editor"
- Mark Helprin (b. 1947)

"Most people who read 'The Communist Manifesto' probably have no idea that is was written by a couple of young men who had never worked a day in their lives, and who nevertheless spoke boldly in the name of 'the workers.'"
- Thomas Sowell (b. 1930)

Now we know who the perpetrators are - and two of them are still alive. How come?
 

Comrade Red Square:
I have contacted the Secret Police to, um, take care of the "situation."  You can contact me in my private quarters for details.

Vladimir Ivanov
 

Off with their heads!
 

You are all capitalist dupes.  There is no, and never was any _New_York_Sun_.  Not only that, but the alleged persons Edmund Wilson, John Dos Passos, Mark Helprin, and especially Thomas Sowell never existed! Never, comrades.

Now. . .get. . . back. . .to. . . work.
