I'm going to be crucified for this...and, let me preface it by saying that i reject much of Marxist theory just like many Democratic Socialists do today.
But, i can't disagree completely with his comments in this regard.
P.S. Doesn't really make sense to compare her to Karl Marx, because despite how much you might disagree with Marx, there is no denying that he was about 100 million x smarter than Pelosi could ever dream to be.
I for one am not going to crucify you, for what he was at least Marx was as close to a true believer as anyone in his ideals. What makes his ideals so dangerous is that his 'followers' aren't true believers, in that they are exempt from all of these societal rules as they are superior and know what's best for all of the little people.
People like Pelosi and Al Gore aren't marxists, they are part of the ruling elite that invoke his ideas when it is politically convenient for them, but have no problem flying first class, eating caviar or buying mansions outside Santa Barbara.
BTW I don't think it is just $$$ that spurns this hypocrisy, you see it in high levels of academia as well. Rules are for the little or ignorant people.
