man school must have changed since I attended. English used to be more than grammer and a small essay. Well we had grammer, but we had an essay kind of equal to the ones we received in Norwegian term papers. No short stories for us. What school are you attending Mah?
finti:
well we have essays and yes a bit similar to the norwegian-type, it happens sometimes that we have short-story but that was only an example, we have other stuff too, all kinds. my point though that we have mostly just a text and some grammar on the tests.
point taken. Thing is though that English aint that hard, just like Norwegian aint hard. But if the teacher and you dont get along your grade can be where he gets back at you. Talking of experiense here

little question:
Marx was the founder of socialism and communism
but wich of these two was closest to what he wanted?
I think it's communism, because they wanted a revolution, just like Marx said it would go, but the socialist made attempts to "delete" kapitalism"...
the hole idea was to share the profits, not only work for the owners and let them steal the entire cake.
Search under the hirachy triangle.
king on top -I RULE YOU
then nobles/Politicians- we decide for you
then the elite society - we eat for you
then the military - we shoot you
then the workers and farmers- we work for them and feed them
Remember, Marx was talking about inevitable political theory. He never really thought it was necessary for people to actually orchestrate a set communist revolution; he just thought it was an inevitable consequence in society.
The Russian Communists broke in two over their philosophical dispute on this. The Mensheviks (Majority) thought that all they needed to do was wait for the inevitability of political change, while the Bolsheviks (minority) where a small,er more vocal group who thought that the chnage could be forced.
Over time, the Bolshebiks unexpectedly became dominant, launched the revolution, and created the precursor to modern day Russia.
To be honest, I don't think any modern interpretation of Socialism or Communism is that close to what Marx envisioned. Modern day socialism embraces values he rejected while modern day communism did not develop the way he thought it would.
To be honest, though, I'd go for communism in the end, because it at least is TRYING to base itself on Marx. More's the pity.
