He wrote a book named "The Communist Manifesto" that focuses on the socioeconomic ideas that would lead to the Russian Revolution. His main point was the struggle between a laissez-faire capitalist economic system and the common person. He stated that in this system, the upper class capitalists have a very exploitative advantage against the people, and would ultimately create a poor population and immense class conflict. His solution? Communism. A socioeconomic system in which everybody works, everything is publicly owned, and everyone shares equally and paid according to abilities and needs.]]> 2022-10-13 14:50:14 UTC https://padlet.com/hannahvarghese796/h8za4gb4a1yojbe7/wish/2338920016 https://padlet.com/hannahvarghese796/h8za4gb4a1yojbe7/wish/2338930089 2022-10-13 14:55:42 UTC https://padlet.com/hannahvarghese796/h8za4gb4a1yojbe7/wish/2338930089 krishchaudhary669 https://padlet.com/hannahvarghese796/h8za4gb4a1yojbe7/wish/2338948215 The February Revolution begins in Saint Petersburg on International Women's Day.
