But Fink isn't "the people." He is one person, one of a small handful who hold most of the wealth and power. It's a small club, and "the people" aren't in it. He also doesn't actually have to manage jack shit in a hands on way. His underlings to do all of the real work (to the extent an asset management firm does real work).
Fink is a proletarian dictator managing the means of production on behalf of the People. He does some work, such as sending those yearly letters to CEOs that tell them what to do. I never said this is good. My point is that Marx would be a fan, and the idea that capitalism is the antithesis of communism is silly.

Marx is not one of "the People." Fink doesn't do shit on behalf of "the People" unless the financial elites are now "the People."
