Name one Marxist policy that has ever existed in the US.

Wow, Republicans are Marxists 🤔

That's an incoherent question.

I guess the closest actual answer would be the Black Panthers and their activities

8 hour work day. 5 day week. (still too long but an improvement). OSHA... The list is literally endless.

OSHA, as much as I love it is not even close to Socialism, its enabling act requries it to consider the effects of profit before any rule comes into place. The citiations are far too low to mean anything, and almost always the too low fines are negotiated down, or vacated intirely.

OSHA is a worker protection but it exests as part of capitalism

Depends on whether you consider social welfare programs an acceptable version of transitional socialism.
