Karl Marx and Communism
Karl Marx idea of communism was a smart thing because it made workers and owners have the same amount of money. Karl Marx wanted communism to take over the world because he thought it would be the best idea. Karl Marx viewed workers as the "good guys" and owners as the "bad guy". The reason Marx thought this is because the owners were controlling the workers and he thought this was not right. Communism was the the belief everyone is equal and therefore everyone gets payed the same amount.
Karl Marx and the Industrial Revolution
Karl Marx was a German Jew who was born in May 5th 1818 in Trier Prussia. Karl Marx did not like the Industrial Revolution because he thought it was bad. He viewed it as children working as slaves for their masters. Karl Marx hated the Industrial Revolution he thought it was torture for children. The Industrial Revolution inspired Karl Marx to invent communism because he thought everyone should be at the same level of power. He also had the thought that if workers rebelled against their owners, the owners would be helpless and wouldn't be able to produce nothing. Karl Marx's idea of Communism was spread throughout the world but only a couple of countries till this day follow communism as their form of government. Such countries are Cuba, China, North Korea etc.
