<And how did you know, at the time, that Marxism was going the way it did?

Any intelligent person would have known that you could not control every aspect of a nation from a central authority without massive armed force being involved. Even the first Marxists realized this. The KGB was founded in 1917...not exactly an afterthought.

And even supposing that early Marxists might have been naive about where their system was going, one certainly cannot say that for those who promote Marxism today. What's their excuse?
