Manifesto

According to Karl Marx’s “Communist Manifesto” there are two classes, the bourgeoisie and the proletariat. The bourgeoisie is known as the upper or elite class and the proletariat is known as the lower or peasant class. We find that the upper class are the ones who are in power and the lower class are the ones who work for them. This is a close similarity between Chomsky’s “Propaganda Model” because only a few people are in charge of those that do the job. However, we find that in the end both groups are controlled. The bourgeoisie class over shadows the proletariat class just like in today's society. Even the bourgeoisie class is controlled. Their are the select few that are in charge and the head of the bourgeoisie that influence the rest of them.
