Karl Marx (Hayden Margolis)
Hello, My name is Karl Marx. I am a wealthy german man with many occupations, but most consider me to be an economist. I love the industrial revolution and all these advancements in technology however I do not believe that it positively impacted all citizens. My opinion is that the industrial revolution helps the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. I support this revolution only if there is communism. All people must make the same wages or else there will be rebellion. The common workers will out number the rich owners and eventually rebel for the small sums of money they are paid. There is too many wage differences with a Industrial Revolution.The only way to succeed in this industrial revolution is communism. We need to eliminate social classes and focus on the intelligent inventions that are to come. I do not believe that industrial revolution can work any other way. There are too many social differences that will divide the community and start rebellion.

ReplyDeleteHello Karl, my good friend, of course I agree with your wise thinking. You are correct when you make the point that the Industrial Revolution did not positively affect everyone. Not only were conditions for common factory workers and children in France utterly horrible, there were significant wage differences. This is why communism is necessary. It will be best for all property in France to be publicly owned and for each person to work and be paid according to their abilities and needs.I fully agree with you, and had a fantastic time working with you!

I believe that your belief in the machines and economy is justified, but communism is not the answer. Differing social classes work that every man can do his duty in society. If some people farm and others distribute their products, there will be stability in the economy. Social classes are necessary so that every man has their role and can trade with others evenly. Only a fair system of trade can benefit the economy.
