Before the Bolshevik Revolution

They seeked better lives and work improvement long before the Communist rise to power. The Communists promised equality where there would not be any classes between the people. (History of the World) This appealed to those who had little who saw the rich getting richer. But the problem was that classes didn’t disappear they just changed. The only people that had any real privileges were the limited ruling class or the Communist leaders. (America Land I Love) The working class still had to work but instead of being controlled by royalty they were controlled by Communists. Like the farm animals kicking out the humans only to have pigs ruling them. The role of the work force in the Russian Revolution was to do all of the labor for the country ranging from simple farming to constructing buildings. They provided the country, mainly its leaders, with what was needed. But the system betrayed them and didn’t give back what they needed. Communism was full of empty promises. Like Boxer giving his all to the cause, he expected a peaceful retirement instead he got the glue
