What where marx's predictions for the future?

I think the funniest bit is the tax evasion ad just beneath it. Gee I wonder why society failed.

Marx wasn't a fortune teller, so he did not predict the future, he simply analyzed capitalism. Because he discovered the falling rate of profit he predicted that capitalism will hit a wall at one point. But at that point the whole world was ripe for capitalism being exported. And if we establish a Mars colony before capitalism dies, it will live longer again.

If that vision of capitalism were correct I would have zero problems with it. Makes me fucking depressed to be honest.

Marx didn't predict Keynesianism. The state can forestall the inevitable decline of capitalism for a bit through massive stimulation of the economy. It doesn't keep working forever though, and eventually it all collapses back to the conditions Marx described. That's what we're seeing right now.

Marx thought that industrial capital would eventually subsume finance capital to do its bidding, but instead it has grown back to the old debt menace responsible for countless societal collapses throughout history. Finance capital needs to be brought to heel before the class war can be waged again in earnest.

Not in Yurop lol
Also if there are still people who believe in any form of sucdem politics, I could introduce you to kulaks on CAP funds, and there you'll see what real, black reaction is.

Don't talk about things you know nothing about. Keynesianism died in the 80s. And Marx was perfectly open about the ability for states to attempt market interventions, and of the various counter-tendencies of ultimate crisis.

He discusses the Birmingham and Manchester schools too and people should really read Das Kapital.
In bourgie Europe, at least between 1945-1980, it was implicitly expected that every minister of finance should have at least read the 1st volume, or at least have an aide who has knows all three by heart. That's where you get all your Pikettys from btw.

If pic related actually did happen, I would never be a socialist

Yeah but productive people like Philip Green need that money more.
Also I don't know whether the fact that it's a daily express article is really funny or really sad.
