Workers Rise Up

Karl Marx had a belief of the existence of classes is bound up with particular historical phases in the development production. However, he also believes the struggle between these two classes will potentially lead to a working class revolution. The two classes are the bourgeoisie and the proletariat, with the bourgeoisie being the rich class and proletariat’s being the poor working class. Marx believes on a three point view of why the class becomes violent. It begins with everyone actually being separated. I believe this causes people to feel as though they have been judged. They have been decided why they are placed in society and the lifestyle they should follow. Next, the relationship between the two is based on a fundamental contradiction. In my words, I believe the fundamental contradiction can be explained as follows: the bourgeoisie are the owners while the proletariat are the workers. The owners look over and watch while the workers do all the work. When the item is released, the owners get more than the workers. Those who did the least work, get the most. This, again, makes the proletariat class more upset because of how hard they worked and how much work they get but received much less than they deserved. Last, conditions will increase in a negative way in which the poor become more poor and numerous while the rich become richer and less numerous. From this three point view, each point digs deeper into the patience and minds of the proletariat class making them more and more upset. As time goes on, the struggle and violence increases greatly. Once it reaches a certain point, the working class will rise up and start a revolution if conditions continue as they are. The revolution may also be a success due to the decrease amount of rich people and increase amount of poor people. When one, numerous group stands up for something they have worked towards for a long time, I believe the ambition will grow along with their strength. This can go back to the idea of the weak using their weakness as strength.
