What does karl marx have to do with communism?
Karl Marx critiqued capitalism. He believed that it had two endemic features 1) the increasing growth of inequality and concentration of wealth(goods, services, factories: anything worth money) in fewer hands and as a result 2) a crisis wherein wealth couldnt be consumed because the majority of people; the working class had been deprived of the wealth and money to exchange for it. He believed that the working class would realise this when such a crisis of underconsumption reached a turning point and the economy entered a recession. It would, as a whole, take this wealth from its owners and redistribute it and run it publicly and democartically: Communism.
