Karl Marx and Communism

Communism was a system in which everything of production, land, mines, factories, railroads, and business were owned and controled by the people. Karl Marx wanted communism to take over the world because he believed that the Industrail Revoution enriched the wealthy and impoveridhed the poor. According to Marx the workers were considered to be the good guys and the factory owners and the industry were the bad guys.

Karl Marx and the Industrial Revolution

No, I do not think that Karl Marx liked the Industrial Revolution. He didn't like the working conditions that the people had during that time . Also, he believed that the workers ,not the landlords, should control the factories and the farms. These events during the Industrial Revolution inspired Karl Marx to create communism because he wanted the workers to control the way they work.

Industrial Revolution - Child Labor

For the children that worked during the Industrial Revolution life was very harsh. The children began to work at a very young age for example some started to work at the age of five. The smallest children would the the most dangerous jobs,they would be used to go under the machines while it was operating to fix it or the collect cotton. Children would inhale toxic air throughout their working day. They worked long days for example they started at 5 in the moring to like 9 or 10 at night with little time for lunch. They were often extremely tired cause of their days.
