A
Too much wealth was being created by people in the United States.

Wealth was being distributed too unevenly in the United States.
C
Too little wealth was being generated by people in the United States.
D
Wealth was being distributed too evenly in the United States.

Marxists argued that capitalism concentrated wealth in the hands of a small class of owners while workers received a smaller share of the value they created. This made wealth distribution too unequal, so the criticism is that wealth was being distributed too unevenly in the United States.
