Capitolism, Socialism and Communism

In class we were given Hershey kisses and most students received 3 and two students received 10. The purpose of this activity was to show the difference between Capitalism, Socialism and Communism. The activity was fun because at the end of the class I had chocolate.


Karl Marx wanted money to be evenly divided so that no one struggled. The poor can help themselves by having private ownership and freedom of competition. Adam Smith theory could help benefit the poor because the prices of goods will be reduced because of businesses competing with each other.


I think the best theory is the Karl Marx theory.

Child Labor Today

Today in class we had a socratic seminar about child labor. Something I brought up during the class discussion was that around 215 million children under 18 work. Another thing that I brought up was some children went into labor not knowing the danger of factory work.

Something someone said that I found important was that they wouldn't stop buying  products made by child labor. Another thing I found important about what someone said is that they didn't think that child labor was such a bad thing until they did research about it.

Our group did well having a nice discussion about child labor. We also did well with coming to class prepared with notes

         This report dated 9/15/1847 has been provided for the urban planning committees of various cities in England. My name is Jahlil Douglas, and as a mid level city inspector I trust that you will use the information within to determine appropriate needs in urban planning for your municipalities. My report has been through as i have made use of all the sources available to me and have worked to guide you through my own analysis and critical thinking to a full description of the issues facing our cities.

There weren't many positive views on the industrial cities. The positive views on the industrial cities were the owners that were friends of man kind. The Cotton Mill was a clean and friendly environment.(Doc C)

There were many negative views on the industrial cities. The cities were polluted with smoke coming from the factories and the rivers were turning purple. Women and children were forced to work in dungeons with heavy choking air that caused bad health. The working had to work in uncomfortably work conditions. Factory work was causing peoples limbs to be distorted.

Based on the sources provided to me I think industrialization had a negative impact on living and working conditions in the cities. The most convincing information is the pollution and the rivers being purple. other information that is also convincing is the women and children worked in dungeons with heavy choking air.
