Markism is defined by Urban Dictionary as "[A] seemingly far-fetched scenario in which there are no rational choices to resolve it and no rational explanation for how it came into being in the first place."
...or maybe the smart students will start training their failing brethren so that everyone ends up with a good grade.
Even if they're not nice, consider this: 1. they probably need to pass that class or they wouldn't have chosen it in the first place 2. if they want a good grade it's their only option.
Marxism would force kindness and/or test-smartness onto everyone in this particular example.
Passing the class would have no value if grades were redistributed, so there wouldn't be a point to staying in the class. They would be right to leave.
Wow it's almost like trying to use a sharing method in an already deeply intrenched hierarchical system without removing the hierarchy first seems like a stupid idea. This post is a red herring, to say the least.
The smart students would transfer to another epsection of that course, where the grades are awarded on merit rather than via group.
A better example would be where everyone worked at a coop for however many hours they wanted, but all money was divided equally regardless of hours worked or types of jobs done ( stock shelves, plan in network, clean bathrooms). All the students would need to shop there as well.
