Communism
There are many different opinions and thoughts toward communism but, do people actually know what communist believe? Communist have an ideology of a cashless, classless, and stateless society. Communism primarily is known for having a strong view of everyone being equal. However, what exactly do communist believe?
Communist overall believe in equality this thought was first proposed by two German philosophers Karl Marx and Friedrich Engles. These two men came together and wrote the book known today as “The Communist Manifesto”. In this book they both expressed the many views and liberalities of communism. They conveyed the idea of correspondence by explaining that the proletariat one day will rise
up against their prosperous capitalists so, that they all may be equal with each other. However, capitalists or the bourgeoisie control the working class. These people get all the money the proletarians work for. Since the bourgeoisie own the production they utilize the workers and give the proletarians just the breadcrumbs of the profit.This is when the idea of Marx comes into play the rich get richer, the poor gets poorer. Karl Marx the creator of communism emphasizes in his book that the logic of equality is to eventually come to a place with a moneyless nation.
What does a cashless society look like? Engles and Marx perceptions of a moneyless nation looks like, the government takes care of the people. While everyone will equally divide the jobs of the country among each other; the government will provide the population with enough food, clothing, and shelter to the citizens of that democracy. Communist believe that it does not matter what job you perform you get the same salary as someone that works at Mcdonald's or that is a doctor. A genuine communist society will have no property or business owned privately but, will be owned by the government only. The moneyless society shows that the government is authority and does not allow anyone to overpower another. Eventually they will kick the government out of the picture and come to the point of a stateless nation.
Once communist progress into a stateless society there will be no laws, no authority over one another, and all goods will be equally shared.
