Capitalism In Karl Marx's The Communist Manifesto

In The Communist Manifesto, Karl Marx challenges the capitalist society and gives his solution to it. Marx takes a standing on capitalism with his book, The Communist Manifesto and displays his view of the problems of the society and how to fix them. Marx gives his critiques of capitalism and in a plethora of ways. Some of these critiques are the exploitation of the working man due to the greed of the ruling class and the working class becomes like slaves to their bourgeoisie masters. Marx also gives solutions to the problem, he makes the statement that capitalism needs to be worked and run as a whole not worked by the many and run by the few.

Karl Marx illuminates the exploitation of the working man by the bourgeoisie due to their greed. Marx gives his opinion on the matter by making educated statements on the topic that are interwoven with a multitude of hyperboles. Marx states “No sooner has the laborer received his wages in cash, for the moment escaping the exploitation by the manufacturers, than he is set upon by the other portions of the bourgeoisie, the landlord, the shopkeeper, the pawnbroker, etc.” (16). With Mark making this statement, he is letting his readers know that the workers earn all this

He wants the world to see capitalism for what it really is. He believes it to be an organism that makes the worker a slave to his boss which will eventually put the worker on the road to being a servant of his master. The worker slaves to earn money that as soon as it goes into his hands ends up in the richer man’s pocket. Marx wants everyone in a capitalistic society to see that everyone as equal and to leave money out of how people are viewed or treated. He wants the society to economically work as a team and run it all together instead of a few people having a say in the way that lives are
