Blog 10/The Communist Manifesto by:Karl Marx

What benefits does Karl Marx expect communism to provide the proletariat?
- According to the reading and what I understand Karl Marx believed that the “communist should provide abolition of property”(Marx 368). From what I understand about the reading is that the proletarians was treated unfairly. The bourgeoisie was the who owned property, and the proletarians owned nothing but their work produced wealth”(Marx 334). Marx believed that people aren’t doing anything in the society, and discussed issues such as child exploitation shows how society are not protecting children or not doing anything about how children are getting raped and the men are not getting prosecuted. He discuss the women in society are exploiting themselves” the communist have no need to introduce community of women”(Marx 372). My idea of everything regarding wealth and poverty is somebody has to be wealthy(bourgeoisie) and somebody has to be poor or live in a low income community. But the proletarians have much more to worry about such as not being able to find because of no education, and as Marx the antagonism between capital and wage labor. Marx is on the proletarian side because his family experienced living on the rough side when he was growing one of the issues he brought up was starvation. The government should be more concerned about the people who are living in low poverty. He discuss and address issues like wealth, production, agriculture, and machinery. In today’s society these issues still in effect as of today, there are many people of all races who live in low income communities and no one is taking the chance to do anything about it.
