Manifesto of the Communist Party

Karl Marx and Frederick Engels did a good job explaining the guidelines of Communism and what will truly make it work. I think they had it right on the money even though I don't agree with Communism what they said about it made sense because in today's society there is a divide between classes and there is not a middle anymore. Karl Marx knew this divide was eventually going to happen and this is why he thought Communism was the best thing for his country. I did not really know the true meaning of the proletariat and the bourgeoisie until reading this reading. The Bourgeoisie is the elite of the society and they dictate what happens to the society because they are the ones with the money. The Proletariat are the working class who work for the Bourgeoisie but they are not slaves. Even though this reading was not my favorite reading it was interesting and I learned a lot more about Communism and where it was stemmed from.
