Sure, it sounds good... to midwits, because it sounds extremely complicated. I've read The Capital once, it's clear from the book that Marx was addicted to the sound of his own voice. It's a bunch of very simple (though mostly batshit insane) ideas, the entire thing could be easily shortened to a couple of paragraphs, but instead it's an endless chore to read. That sort of thing attracts midwits like shit attracts flies, because they tend to believe that if it sounds complicated it must be super smart, and that if they pretend to understand it, they will sound smart as well.
