Reading this article, it is clear that even intelligent and enlightened people such as His Holiness are sometimes unaware of the contradictions in their philosophy.
The Buddha himself maintained:
"Do not go by what is handed down, or by the authority of your traditional teachings. When you know of yourself, 'these teachings, when put into practice, conduce to loss and suffering; these teachings are not good,' then reject them. Don't tell me what you believe. How could this matter?" --Siddartha Gautama
With all respect, I urge the Dalai Lama to re-examine his opinion of Marxism. The results of its teachings are, most assuredly, NOT GOOD.

Intelligent commentary is welcome. Spam will be annihilated. Stupidity will be mocked.
