I compleatly agree with your statement on individualism. Bravo!

But you did not state that Marx did, in fact, advocate control of the economy. I have my copy of the Manifesto right here:

"5. Centralization of credit IN THE HANDS OF THE STATE...

6. Centralization...of communication IN THE HANDS OF THE STATE

7. Extension of...the means of production OWNED BY THE STATE"
