Karl Marx and Communism

Karl Marx was an German philosopher that created the idea of Communism. He didn't agree with the conditions of the workers in Europe. He thought that the workers had more powers over the landlords and they should unite in a world revolution for Communism. Communism is when the goverment controls everything and the people have no control over the government, those who went against communism were treated harshly. He wanted communism to take over the world because he wanted everyone to be controlled by the government and everyone to have equal amount of money paid and equal work hours. Marx saw the workers as the good guys and he saw the owners as the bad guys because he thinks that the workers have more power over the owners, number wise.
