The Most Insightful Line Of The Decade?

Karl Marx famously said that "religion is the opiate of the masses."

Screenwriter Robert Avrech has replied: "Marxism is the opiate of the elites."

One could easily write entire books in support of that position. It is the most insightful line I've read in years. Do read Mr. Avrech's entire post on his evolution from left to right.
