Human history suggests that we have always strived to find different types of governments that would work more efficiently according to the demands of the greater mass. Needless to say communism is not often perceived to as the perfect form of government. "In, The Communist Manifesto, Karl Marx is reacting to the quest for an ideal society by describing his vision of a perfectly balanced society, a communist society. Simply put, a communist society is one where all property is held in common. No one person has more than the other, but rather everyone shares in the fruits of their labors. Marx is writing of this society because, he believes it to be the best form of society possible. He believes that communism creates the correct balance between the needs of the individual, and the needs of society" (http://www.wowessays.com/dbase/ae4/lmy53.shtml). Marx's main thesis is the re-organization of the society, he sees that the majority of societies exist in sub-human conditions and that there is a disproportionate abundance of property and power used and abused by the bourgeoisie. All the necessary elements are present for the bourgeoisie to exploit the lesser class; all they have in their possession is their commoditized labor. .
"Here Marx is speaking of how the bourgeoisie controlled society takes every aspect of society and puts them in terms of an exchange value. They reduce all that is noble and admirable about humanity to monetary matters, all in the name of capitalism. Again, All that is solid melts into air, all that is holy is profaned, and man is at last compelled to face with sober senses, his real conditions of life, and his relations with his kind). The bourgeois creates a system in which anything and everything is measured by its strict cash worth. Now that the roles of the bourgeoisie and proletariat have been established, it is possible to reconsider the communist ideal. Clearly, Marx believes that it is wrong for the majority of society, the proletariat, to suffer so.
