Karl Marx and Communism


Karl Marx was the son of Hirshel and Henrietta Marx. Marx was born in 1818. Karl Marx's idea towards communism was that workers share the wealth in the commom society and the wealth should be distributed by by according to each wants and according to each needs.

Most of the countries did not use the idea of communism that Marx's used because Marx's idea was that the workers could control the government, but with this the government was strict and forced the workers to work long hours on the factories and farms. The press also was censored and they were not allowed to critcize the government, if people were caught critcizing or spoke against it the government would have treated them harshly.
