Marx, as an economist, is nothing. Forget him. The real reference is John Maynard Keynes, and, in certain aspects, John Stuart Mill.

Could you expound upon this a little more? I'm fairly competent with Marx's dialectic progression but a little shaky on the economic precepts behind it. The 1844 Manuscripts show Marx's dialectic but not much beyond that.
Which is probably why communism hasn't worked that well in the past...ideologues and philosophers writing economic law sounds absolutely terrifying to me.
