Karl Marx and Communism
Karl Marx's theory lead to a peaceful society which was controlled by the working class, also known as the lower class. Communism is a system of government in which the state planes and controls the economy. And a single, often party holds power, claiming to make progress towards a higher social order in which all goods are equally shared by the people. He believed that if people would get together and make a change, the society will be a better place to live in. He also thought that people weren't getting enough pay, when they should of because they worked hard for 25 cents. Communism payed everyone the same pay no matter what job they had. In his opinion he thought anyone that was with the idea of the Industrial Revolution was cruel and greedy. Also he believed that religion was a drug , it kept people from doing the work because it kept the people quite . Another thing was that it kept people in metal chains . He beleived there was going to be a strike or a fight agianst the workers and bosses. Because the workers wanted their pay and the bosses refused to give them the money they desereved.
