Karl Marx
Karl Marx
created the communist manifesto
because looking at the capitalist world
the wealthy abused the poor
The wealthy enjoyed abundant lifestyles
well everybody else became slaves money
the wealthy getting wealthier
well wages were eroded
Marx was a trained economist
women died in the cotton factories of Manchester
by the time they reached twenty eight years old
killed by the cotton fibres, they had to breath
But he forgot to take into account, an important detail
for society to thrive, you need to reward effort
The farmer creates a productive farm
Because the farm rewards his effort
back in the sixties
Three percent of Americas work force
created enough food, to not only feed America
but also return, profit from exports
Communism doesn't give immediate reward
back in the sixties twenty five percent of the Russian workforce
could not provide enough food to feed the country
Stalin invested in factories well people died from famine
Advancing technology could cripple our economy
American Governments by the people for the people
yet even today people in Africa die of starvation
they say in the future thirty eight percent of the workforce
will be replaced by robots
machines and computers all ready replace
thousands of jobs done by employees
In the future, only very gifted people
will have the ability, to stay employed
what happens to all the disabled
what happens to normal people
what happens to the worlds consumer market
The wages of your employees become the worlds customers
people, without the ability to work, become unemployed
becoming a burden on reducing taxable income
for the system to work effectively it requires balance
If we teach people to become investors
we create more jobs for the people of the world
perhaps in their future, they could live off the profits from company shares
the Lego company already has robots and technology replacing employees
But for the Lego company to survive, it needs customers
employers want to reduce company costs
that is good business sense, reduce costs and sell low priced products,
there by gaining customers
so our future, as with our past
has seen employees replaced by machines
but if we want economies to thrive
we need to get, money to the people to create customers
Teaching people to become investors
could eventually see, wage's replaced, by profits form shares
if as a world, we could all become the share holders,
replacing wages from employment, with profits from shares
