Living appears to be a luxury for these poor workers; their American dream is deformed.

Why was slavery abolished? Slavery was the process where slaves had to do hard labour for the people who legally owned them. Abolish means to stop something happening.

Animal Farm Prose Analysis In the following extract from Animal Farm by George Orwell, it describes how the farm has grown richer but the riches go to the dogs and pigs. At this point in the story Napoleon has taken over Animal Farm and has become the new leader.

This is supported when he says, “Imagine there’s no countries, it isn’t hard to do, nothing to kill or die for.” Further support for the message of “Imagine” is shown later in the song when Lennon sings, “Imagine no possessions, I wonder if you can. No need for greed or hunger, a brotherhood of a man.” Homelessness in the United States was starting to increase in the 1970s, and Lennon was imagining no poor and rich people.

Marx identifies three different types of class societies. These are: Ancient society, where slaves would be exploited in order to serve the ruling class. Feudal society, where society is formed around the owner of a piece of land would have workers working for them on that piece of land. And a capitalist society, where the ruling class exploit workers using a free wage market and many other ways in the economy.
