Q
Human nature
A
Human nature has not been damaged to the extent Marx alleged - fraternity and altruism still flourish in wokring-class communities punished by capitlist economies

Q
State
A
the existing capitilist state must be destroyed by revolution, but one arising from strike action - the replacement state should be a genuine democracy, comeplete with free speech and free elections
3
Q
Society
A
capitilist society is class-ridden and morally indefensible, yet alternative societies exist within down-trodden proletarian communities
4
Q
Economy
A
capitilism is more resilient than Marx allowed - its necassary destruction and replacement by an economy based on wokrers control will require determination and solidarity among the proletariat
