Karl Marx and The Indutrial Revolution

Karl Mrax was a German man who practically changed Russian History. He was born a Jew but his father turned to Christianity to find a job. Karl Mrx, however, did not believe in God whatsoever. He thought that religion was what made people get jobs. He compared religion to some sort of "drug". He also had no love for the Industrial revolution at all. Conditions in European factories were very dangerous to the people. He though that factories should be run by the people who work in it, not by the landlords of the factories itself. He didn't like the ideas of people, especially young children , had to work for such long hours at a time with no breaks in between. He felt that the workers themselves were being run by these machines instead of by their own will. Workers didn't seem to have a say during the Industrial Revolution. They were hardly being paid enough to support their families. Many people who did work but never got paid enough, lived in slums. They were very dirty places! Landlords of the factories were usually the ones who lived in the laps of luxury. Karl Marx declared this was very unfare and it inspired him to create a world of communism.
The idea of communism was derived from the word common. It goes with the idea that workers would be able to share wealth and that wealth could also be ditributed among members of a communism society. After he died, his communism ideas were not used that often, however. He believed that workers of a communist society should band together and control the government. The only problem was that communist societies were very strict when it came to ruling. It was like being ruled by a dictator. Most workers were forced to work on huge farms like they did befor. The press was almost always censored to the public. People didn't know if something was going on. They were not even allowed to print news on things that were concerned with the government. If they tried to speak out, the people were often times treated harshly.
Even though not all things in a communism society were good, people have learned. Communism is not as controlling as it was then. People of a communism society are now treated more fairly. Karl Marx may not have had the best idea during the Industrial Revolution but we have learned from them. As the saying goes, we learn from our mistakes!
