    A) Power is held by an economic elite, the people who control the ''means of production''

    Explanation:

    Karl Marx openly criticized the capitalist system. He was on the opinion that the workers are manipulated by the people in power, and that they were doing that very wisely in order to be able to retain their power, and even gain more of it. According to Marx this was done through the means of production. There was not many people that controlled the means of production, but it was an economic elite that had them all under its control. Because they had the means of production, it meant that they had all of the jobs in the industries under their influence, and through it, they had power over the workers. Marx thought that this is not the right way to function, but that the means of production and the overall control of the society and the power in it should be in the people, not just few elitists.
