Karl Marx and Communism

Karl Marx have created a system called communism . Communism is when the government takes over everything=[. People then begin to get the same paycheck at the end of the week; even though one person works harder than the other they get the same even pay. Karl Marx also wanted to limit religion. Karl Marx said "religion is the opiate of the people"; opium is a drug. Karl Marx want evryone to be treated the same but that did not work out because people is greedy for money. When he died in 1883, his plan have all ready went into effect. Countries have followed his idea and became communist. Some counties have went to war with others to stop the spread of communism. Countries like China, Russia, Cuba, and North Korea are still communist today.

Karl Marx and The Industrial Revolution

Karl Marx was the guy that created the Communist system. During the Industrial Revolution people were gaining money but getting more than others. People could not work certain jobs because of their religion, so he created the communist system. Communist is similar to the word common. Karl Marx wanted everyone to be even, get their fair share but everyone wasnt getting their fair share in this system. I guy that is a lawyer and a guy that works in a market get the same pay. By the time Karl Marx died some countries have turned into communists.
