On your Marx

The Dalai Lama said once again said on Thursday that he is a Marxist . Marxism has "moral ethics, whereas capitalism is only how to make profits" the Dalai Lama explained .

However, he credited China's embrace of market economics for breaking communism's grip over the world's most populous country and forcing the ruling Communist Party to "represent all sorts of classes." Capitalism "brought a lot of positive to China. Millions of people's living standards improved" he said.

SOYMB can only be reminded of Karl Marx's own words commenting on those who claimed to be his adherents "All I know is that I am not a Marxist."
