Strobe Talbott's commentary is a superb assessment of the legacy of Karl Marx. I am not blind to the shortcomings of our political and economic system. Nevertheless, misuse of power and position, however gross, is hindered in the U.S. by internal controls and (sometimes excessive) scrutiny by a free press.
