Russian country was struck by a huge crisis.  The poverty, famine and World War took many of russian citizens. Long hours at work, overcrowded housing, constant risk of injury and death, deplorably sanitary conditions, harsh discipline and inadequate wages indicate that the changes should be made instantly. Cost of living is sky high and people can barely have enough meals for a day. Centuries of oppression of lower classes, from the Tsarist regime and failures in the World War I demand that workers should fight for their freedom. Strikes and bread riots are spreading across the country.

The Bolsheviks promise that the power should be in workers hands. The means of production will be took from the capitalists and be given back to the proletariat. Nationalisation of the land indicate that everyone should be equal in the terms of outcomes, and that the state is the only one that should have a legitimacy over the distribution of goods. The purpose of the state, according to the Bolsheviks is to take care for every citizen in the country, not only for the wealthy.
