Karl Marx thinks "after the Industrial Revolution, the economic situation has created two groups of people--- the group that owns the means of producing the products and the group that works to produce them." He wrote that this is unfair and should be overthrown.

Marx and Engels stated that communism can be summed up in the abolition of private ownership of property. Once the means of production are owned by the community as a whole, they can be used to benefit the community as a whole rather than just the individual owners of those means.

Other guiding principles are creation of a state where there are no separate classes like capitalism's bourgeoisie and proletariat and that

members of the society contribute according to their ability and take according to their need.

A system of government where the government plans and controls the economy. Also all citizens are deemed equal.
