I'm a bit ashamed to admit that I used to reason like this as well. But in the past few years I started to shed my Marxist skin, all thanks to stumbling across libertarian and anarchist thinkers that made me question everything I held true, as well as my motives for holding on to these views. I started investigating the Austrian perspective of economics, and its critique of the current Keynesian model.

Yup me too. Ayn Rand is a good one who is inline with Hayek etc. as well. Was so weird to start reading the material and then it just starts to make sense. I really have Nick Szabo to thank for showing me how to reason and rationalize the benefits of capitlism over socialism, and then all the rest of the names are what I was introduced to through him (and through Nash and Smith etc.).
