if Trotsky had been aware of the future, he would never have advocated Marxism. His concern was towards the working class. If he had known the fact that to get a loaf of bread one needed to get up at 4:00 A.M. in the wee hours of the morning to go stand in a line that went half way around the block, he would have dropped his theory and replaced it with capitalism--a theory that results in plenty for the people that in fact work. [His concern was not towards welfare recipients. He would rather have been concerned about the people that were actually working. [You can see this in his writings that all hinge on the concept-that the workers are good and the parasites like welfare collectors are evil.]
And why would taking from bankers and other wealthy people be right? The whole idea of redistribution is based on movies that portray rich people as having stolen from the poor. But movies are not evidence. Other that that why should there be a prima facie assumption that the reason anyone who has more than another is because they stole it?
