Karl Marx and Communism

Karl Marx was a man born in Tier, Prussia Which is known as Germany in 1818. He was one of the founders to Communism. Communism is a way of living were everyone gets paid the same even if the work was different. Like for example a doctor and a factory worker get paid the same amount of money. Also that people were not able to own their land or houses. These were some of the ideas that were created by Karal Marx.

Marx wanted Communism to take over the world so then everyone would be on the same level as everyone else. There was no balance of power so then the workers would get mistreated by the owners. Also a lot of people supported the ideas of Communism these were mostly workers who didn't get the money they deserved. This is why he wanted Communism to take over the world.

The "good guys" Marx is talking about are the factory workers who didn't like the way they were being treated because Marx wanted them to have the people to have the power. The "Bad Guys" are the Factory owners who controlled everything that happens in the factory because they controlled most of the workers.

Karl Marx and the Industrial Revolution

Karl Marx was a man born in Germany on the 5th of May. He was the founder of Commission. That started during the industrial revolution which was a time when factories were forcing kids to work. Marx didn't relly like it he hated it. He thought that the workers should be the one controlling farms and factories. The Reason of this hatred of factories and the industrial revolution was the way the factory treated people and Didn't treat the kids nicely. Also people would sometimes die or not get paid very well.
This inspired him because he saw all the pain and suffering he wanted to help the workers and asked them to revolt and started this very famous religion or following that people took this by. This caused people to lose money if they had factories. This was life Karl Marx who created Communisms.
