Why MARXISM is sold so easily to the masses?
See Pareto's Principle...the 80/20 Rule.
Pareto observed that in a society not all effort/ambition is created equal. It's human to BE lazy, it's human to be ambitious, and it's only human that no "one" are the same...in fact....what Pareto found out was ...in all things quantifiable...
80% of all people will only perform 20% of societies needs....while 20% will do the heavy lifting with 80% of the needs to society.
Disparaging the 1% at every turn...well, this is why Pareto accepts this principle as range....99/1, 90/10, 85/15. 80/20.
If you can accept this premise than you can extrapolate further by understanding that you are going to have many a discontented person, envy, jealous etc...when you have an ideological movement that INSTIGATES the division and diabolically use it to gain power, by defacing the whole idea of self reliance, of accountability...
This is wny and HOW Marxism takes shape
