Caveat: Lumpenconsumerist

Karlmarxcard_customThere is apparently a Karl Marx themed Mastercard credit card issued by a bank in eastern Germany. Far out.

I saw it at the Marginal Revolution blog.

As one commenter points out: "For the materialist in you."

It's fun to think of all kinds of wacky advertising tag-lines. The best I've come up with in the last 5 minutes is: "Sometimes changing the means of production takes a litte extra. Let us help."

    If it is from a Chemnitz bank, that is not surprising.
    I was in Chemnitz, briefly, once upon a time. In the center of the city sits an enormous Marx statue, which are not uncommon in Germany. The city was actually -named- “Karl Marx City”, 1945 (or so) to 1990 (or so).
