Actually Marxism is about equal pay for equal work, too.

I dunno, Jesus kissed Judas if I remember correctly, or was it the other
way around? Probably no tongues though.

I suppose it's *possible* that Lenin, Trosky and co might have achieved
some sort of change if the rest of the world hadn't ganged up on them, but
their vision was well and truly scuppered by the nations around them who

something equally reprehensible. Stalin just swanned into the resulting
mess and took over.
