Marx claims that everyone can make something for themselves. My sister's fiance is a theoretical physicist. That means that he thinks for a living and every once in a while he writes something down. What would Marx say to this? Yes, he is making something in a sense, but if we were all to live in a community of contribution, wouldn't other people see him as a burden since breakthroughs are only made once every couple decades?
I also want Marx to answer to the fact that there are some people who cannot contribute the the community due to mental health issues, or physical limitations. What do we have these people do? Just as above, the rest of the community may see them as dead weight, dragging them down. If that happens, people could begin to selectively kill those who could not contribute and a second form of the Holocaust could begin.
I would want to hear a reaction on these two topics from Marx.
