Philosophy of Karl Marx in the light of Capitalism and

Communism

“Private property is the product of alienated labor.”

The meaning of Marxism is the hypothesis of Karl Marx which


says that society's classes are the reason for battle and that
society ought to have no classes. An example could be
supplanting private proprietorship with co-usable possession.
He wanted to eliminate Capitalism where he thought the labors
would keep on working and would never get on top and that
they would never get the opportunity to get the things they were
making themselves in the factories, as a matter he called this
Alienation.
He believed Communism would get everyone treated equally
and when the economy will be in the hands of the government
and when there will be no private ownership the country will
eventually rise and develop.
Whilst in reality, I believe, it is not true. The inventions and the
opportunities are out there. Even the thing I’m using right now
(a laptop and an internet connection, writing report on Microsoft
Word) is an invention because of Capitalism. There is
competition because of Capitalism. People give rise to new ideas
as they know they will be judged on the basis of their work.
I see a lot of people from different countries opposed to Karl
Marx’s ideas and they only call him an accidental journalist who
somehow got everyone’s attention but nevertheless he still has
some followers so there must be a reason for them. I, on the
other hand, am opposed to Karl Marx’s Philosophy. I believe
Capitalism is the way to greater inventions and technologies
which we need in this modern world. The trade and ownership
should be allowed for the private owners rather than the state
itself. People need freedom instead of a forceful government
telling them what to do.
China has worked out pretty well, but then again it is not a total
communist country and the people are also willing to their
government. I suppose Capitalism and Communism also
varies with people. In Pakistan, the type of people we are I know
that it is for sure they are never going to give themselves up to
the government and give their privately owned property. Never
in a million years would all the rich give up their assets. People
like us believe in competition. The only thing which is a must
though is justice. If corruption is eliminated totally and there are
just people overall giving everyone equal opportunities then
Capitalism will work at its best. We need to work on ourselves
as a community and provide justice to the individuality.
