Unfortunately for everyone, Labour and the Marxists of every stripe believe the same fundament thing about the world as we find it: That in order for the poor to come out of poverty some one else must suffer.

Wikipedia says: In game theory and economic theory, a zero-sum game is a mathematical representation of a situation in which each participant's gain or loss of utility is exactly balanced by the losses or gains of the utility of the other participants. Some of us insist that this is plainly false. Our expression is "A rising tide lifts all boats." If this were not true the bloody revolution predicted by Marx and delivered in his name by the Bolsheviks would surely have swept the world by now . . .
