The fruit roll up smells like hooka tobacco (mmmmmm) and blueberry. It looks like a blue piece of rubber tongue. It tastes like tobacco and blueberry. The only thing it sounds like is the fruit roll up squishing between your teeth. It feels like sticky rubber that can easily be broken.

Communism Exhibit


Welcome to the Industrial Revolution rise of communism exhibit. In this exhibit we have photographs of Karl Marx, his family and his friend Friedrich Engels. Communism is a form of government thought up by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. Communism supports the elimination of private property creating a classless and stateless society. Everyone is equal; their house and health service is covered by the government. Everything is owned by the people through the government.

Communism has affected the way people think about politics and the government. Karl Marx criticized capitalism because he thought that it was making the rich man richer and the poor man poorer. As a solution to this problem he proposed communism.

Look at the photo gallery and see me if you have any questions.

The Great Communist Dies


Yesterday on the 14th of March, 1883, the father of communism, Karl Marx died. In the words of his friend Engels, "On the 14th of March, at a quarter to three in the afternoon, the greatest living thinker ceased to think. He had been left alone for scarcely two minutes, and when we came back we found him in his armchair, peacefully gone to sleep - but forever." The loss is terribly felt by all in Europe, communists in America, and the rest of the world.

Karl Marx was born in the year 1818 in Trier, Prussia. He was a scientist, a politician, a historian, a mathematician, and a revolutionary. He came to be known as the father of communism. His biggest contribution was to liberate the lowest social and economic class of the community. He supported the elimination of the private properties and enterprise. He felt that people should earn the same amount of money, and there should be no social class.

Karl Marx was the most controversial figure; many slandered him because of his revolutionary ideas. He just brushed aside criticisms and just proceeded to communicate his philosophy and ideas through his writings and speeches. Together with Engels, Marx developed a criticism of the capitalistic system in which labor was seen and treated as a dispensable commodity.

He was married in June 19, 1843 to Jenny von Westphalen. They raised a total of seven children but only three of them survived into adulthood. The family lived in poverty and they had to live in a three room flat in London. The source of their income was money that was given by Marx’s friend Engels. Marx also had a job of writing weekly articles for the “New York Daily Tribune.” Marx died as a stateless person and is buried in Highgate Cemetery London.

What buy low sell high has to do with the stock market is that you buy a company and wait till the year is over. The next year price might go up or down but if it goes up you can sell it for a very high price. I was constantly selling my "Drexel Morgan" because the price was always going up and I made a lot of money. Stock people often sell their companies because the price goes up most of the time.

Descriptive Writing


Dear Karl Marx,

I am John D. Rockefeller founder of the Standard Oil Company. My goal in life is to make as much money as I can and use it to help people. Both of us want everyone to have a good life but in different ways. You are a communist who is supporting the elimination of the private properties and enterprise. I know you think that people should earn the same amount of money, and there should be no social class. While I understand that you want equality, I do not agree with your philosophy, because it is a wrong kind of equality since it is against basic human freedom and spirit of creativity.

I believe people should be allowed to make as much money as they want, and according to their talents, skills, creativity, and how hard they work. Not everyone will like your policy of communism because even those who do not work hard or are not creative will earn the same amount of money as those who are hard working and creative. Under your policies, there will be no competition which is important for people so they will work hard and economy will grow.

My policy of capitalism promotes competition and creativity, and protects human liberty and freedom of choice. All people will benefit from the economic progress in a capitalistic society. The money earned by rich people can be channeled by them to help the poor and fight poverty and disease.

I therefore urge you not to spread your philosophy which can cause political trouble, against basic human rights and liberty, and are likely to make everybody poor.

Yours truly,


John D. Rockefeller

I need to catch up with the work I missed and right now. I also need to start bringing my assignments on time. I can't get four days of missed work done in one day, and today I realized that I didn't have my assignment today. I think that happened because I was too focused on my new MOTO RAZR. Earlier I was catching up with my work because I was here at AES but now I left for Pakistan and missed 4 days worth of work. My goals are not going too good. I really regret going to Pakistan and I never will miss work. I'm still not that participant and need to be otherwise things can go wrong.
