Marx's ideal government structure was something more like the Paris Commune: a progressive, socialist commune with feminist, communist, and anarchist influences.

It lasted two month because the gouvernement de Versailles (3rd French Republic) decided to kill people en masse. They killed so much it was called la semaine sanglante.
As Marx once said, "One-man management [is] the most important principle of the organisation of socialist economy."
Wait, no, that was the Soviets, my bad
