27. Marx believed he could determine the future.

And that things resolved themselves without any more intervention than having his ideas, so he wrote and spread his ideas. That to him was enough.

He didnt look at his ideas as a perscription so much as a description of the inevitable next phase of the economy. That is one of the reasons that it is in fact entirely unrealistic and wacky if you apply the model to modern times.
