This summing up of Marxism is total, 100% bullshit. It is not part of Marxism to "hate the man that is better than you" any more than it is part of capitalism to "love the man that is worse than you".

You need negative understanding of Marxism to believe that Henry Hazlitt quote describes Marxism. It is not just stupid and foolish but it is obviously stupid and foolish. It is as accurate as these:

• you can sum up the conservative political view with "never throw trash away, you must keep it forever"
• you can sum up libertarianism as "every day should be like that movie The Purge with no laws or rules"

but because this is Marxism Henry Hazlitt is talking about millions of wet-brains are all "so true!!!".

Hazlitt has been praised by such intellectual midgets as Ayn Rand and Ronald Reagan, and economic frauds like Milton Friedman who at least had the decency in his retirement to admit that the economic bullshit he invented, which had and still has such awful human cost around the world, was wrong.
