An honorary Nobel Prize in Economics for Karl Marx ?

Stock Market plunges today
 I recall the dramatic stock market crash of 1987.  It was not quite 1929 again. I think Marxist scholars have been marginalized for years in the capitalist loving news media. But they have been right all along about the " internal contradictions " of this global economic system ending in chaos and panic and perhaps even " the common ruin of the contending classes. "
       How about an honorary Nobel Prize in Economics for Karl Marx who condemned the capitalist system way back in 1848 ?
        Not for nothing the " socialist" Democrat Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont could be the next president of the United States.But Bernie is no more radical than " that man " FDR.
     I would certainly vote for peaceful social change-if possible.
