Karl Marx and the Industrial Revolution

     Karl Marx was born Jewish and became German, but he had good ideas for Russia. He heard about the Industrial Revolution, which was an era of jobs, factories, and many good opportunities. But he thought that there should be a different way of life. Marx called it Communism. It was where people with jobs  had more freedom than landlords. However, it would be harsh because many governments were replaced by Communist groups. There would be no jobs, school, fun, sports, or any other activity going on in a Communist country. Marx never supported the things going on in the Industrial Revolution, especially the jobs, factories, and inventions there.
