i waited for the book anticipating a usual used book. it was not a usual used book. it was in great shape, no dog ears. the vendor was excellent

This is *THE* book to read if you wish to learn what Communism is about, not the Stalinist perversions of Karl's system. To all the Capitalist ignoramuses out there, read this and other works of Marx and find out how wrong, and in fact, how idiotic your assertion is that Marxism failed because of the failure of the Soviet Union, which was a peversion of Marxism created by Stalin. Being one read on the works of Marx, Lenin and Trotsky, I know that True Communism, and the struggle to achieve the same, is the exact opposite of everything these tyrannical systems were. Even Lenin and Trotsky themselves realized that Stalinism was a step backwards from Communism, and needed to be stopped. It's really sad you can't accept facts that contradict your view of Socialism being wicked and evil, and can only listen to assumption-based and ignorance-based claims that Totalitarianism is the only system that can come from Socialist struggle, and that Socialism, and that Socialism is somehow supposedly anti-freedom. Socialism is anti-exploitation. Socialism is anti-domination. Socialism is anti-totalitarianism. This is what Socialism is about, and this is what Marx was about.
