Karl Marx and Communism

Karl Marx's idea of Communism is that the government owns everything. No one owns their own house or buisness. Everyone gets paid the same amount, no matter what occupation you have. Marx believed that soon everything would be so perfect that there would be no need for a government, soon it would slowly disappear. Marx wanted communism to take over the world so that everyone could live in peace. Marx thought that the bad guys was Capitolism. The rich people who owned buisnesses and let the poor be poor.

Karl Marx and The Industrial Revolution

Karl Marx didn't like the Industrial Revolution because he thought that it was very unfair. The way some people were richer than others, or how workers had become so stuck to working, it had become their life. Marx thought that the Industrial Revolution caused pollution, hurt the animals and took over people's lives. The Industrial Revolution inspired Marx to come up with Communism. Communism is the opposite of Capitolism. Communism is when everyone's payment is equal, therefore men are equal. The government owned every business and mortgage. Soon, Marx figured that government would slowly disappear and there would be no use for it. However, this method was better said than done.
