Adam Smith vs. Karl Marx

The little girl knows more than most.

Adam Smith versus Karl Marx is kind of like Mike Tyson versus Marvis Frazier, except Marvis Frazier somehow managed to accumulate just as many fans. That anyone still takes the economic "theories" (and I use that term loosely) of Marx seriously is astonishing.

What the little girl says is even Marx's ideas became part of the culture even though history has shown him wrong. Many of his base ideas were borrowed from Smith, Malthus, Ricardo.
