Adam Smith and Karl Marx represent total opposition in terms of their ideology. If we look today's circumstances inequality and gap between people and the social classes is apparently a big problem. So Marx was right to critisize this inhumane capitalist system. Marx said capitalist system will destroy itself but I think there won't be a change like switching a total communist system, instead people especially wealthy ones will be looking for some adjustments by using their power. However Marxist utopia is still a hope for me and many others since we want to live in a "just" world. Today it's applicable in smaller areas and it could be popular again in different forms because whole system actually depends on lower class, workers.
Here is a video compares ideas of two superficially. I don't agree with some points, one is at the end saying gap is not growing. To me it's just an illusion because we have "modern slaves" more than yesterday and gap is growing geometrically.
