Скандалистка Мадонна, концерт которой состоится в августе в Санкт-Петербурге, обратилась к русским поклонникам с необычным спичем.

«Владельцы капитала будут стимулировать рабочий класс покупать больше и больше дорогих товаров, домов и техники, заставляя их брать все больше дорогих кредитов, пока их долги не станут обременительными. Просроченные долги приведут к банкротству банки, которые будут национализированы, и государство выйдет на тропу, которая в конце концов приведет к коммунизму.»

Карл Маркс, 1867

«Owners of capital will stimulate working class to buy more and more of expensive goods, houses and technology, pushing them to take more and more expensive credits, until their debt becomes unbearable. The unpaid debt will lead to bankruptcy of banks, which will have to be nationalized, and State will have to take the road which will eventually lead to communism.»

Karl Marx, 1867
