My Florida law clerk guy writes:

Russell Kirk actually wrote the introduction to Ruth A. Bevin's "Marx and Burke: A Revisionist View," which argues that the two thinkers had a lot more in common than is often thought. As for Illich and technology, Kirk refused to drive a car and once discovered a small television that his daughters were using to secretly watch soap operas and threw it off the top of the house and smashed it into pieces.
Roger Scruton has been known to quote Marx on the subject of capitalism and the destruction of traditional mores I think.
