Karl Marx and the Industrial Revolution


Karl Marx felt that the hard working people in factories and farms should be in control of everything instead of having owners or landlords to order them. He did not like the ways the Industrial Revolution was turning out. Because of this, it came to him to unite all these people to go against the law of owners and landlords. Thats where communism came about. Karl Marx believed that if people worked together doing similar jobs, they should of all been distributed their earnings equally, as one. He inspired many to take his lead to demand this law to be changed. Communism is still popular today and it all began with a man trying to improve laws for these hard working people during the Industrial Revolution, thanks to Karl Marx.
