Описание: Marx Today: Capitalists Aren't Geniuses, They Inherit Wealth

They want you to believe billionaires earned their fortunes through genius and hard work. But the data tells a completely different story.

• Why 60% of extreme wealth comes from inheritance, monopoly power, or crony capitalism
• How the labor theory of value explains modern exploitation
• The real source of innovation (hint: it's not private capitalists)
• Why social mobility is a lie designed to keep you working
• How capital accumulation concentrates wealth across generations
• What Marx actually proposed as an alternative
• Concrete steps we can take to build working-class power

Surplus value extraction in the modern economy
