>>Funny how HN comments are so full of complaints about practices that inhibit businesses our system is actually designed for. What makes coops and communes so easy?
Insofar as there are obstacles to starting businesses, communes, etc, they are a result of interventions by the state that inhibit the free market, like permitting and licensing requirements, so the solution there is to go more toward a free market, not less.
>>Marx didn’t even defend it.
That's extremely disingenuous. He authored it. He titled it 'The Communist Manifesto', thus placing it at the center of his political platform.

Communist Manifesto isn’t a work anyone seriously defends. Marx didn’t even defend it. It’s a history scrap; significant by contextual events. If you read Marx’s seminal work, you’d not honestly raise such a moot point.
