The analysis of the problem remains valid and occurred early. The solution? Most people look at the result of Lenin, Stalin and Mao and reject that. I know you are too ideologically blind and not listening to those who oppose you. Thus, you sill associate whomever you please with whatever you please no mater how clearly or often their view is clarified. That is only a problem with someone as value locked and ideological as you.

But a lot of people agree that the division of wealth is a problem. Whether you call them the Military Industrial Complex, the Robber Barons, the one percent, the elites, or the owners of the means of production, the problem is still there. If you call anyone who thinks the division of wealth is a problem a Marxist, then there are lots of Marxists. If you only use that label for those who think the combination of capitalism and democracy has failed completely, and it requires violence to solve the problem, there are very very few who count as Marxists. Off hand, the Boogaloo Bois fall into that category, and I know of no others? Even they avoid Marxist language like the plague. Violence just leads to failure too often.
