regarding: &quot;Actually, at its core Marxism is about this motto: (take) from each according to his ability, (give) to each according to his needs.&quot;<p>In a communist society there is no state to &quot;take&quot; or &quot;give&quot; in that way.<p>Nor is Marx&#x27;s thought or marxism &quot;about [that] motto&quot; &quot;at its core&quot;.<p>If you have arguments to make about a basic income, can you please make them without so badly misrepresenting the thought of others?<p>I happen to agree that a UBI is silly, bad goal but I&#x27;m offended at how falsely Marx is being described here.
