rotenotes“The essential difference between the
various economic forms of society, between, for instance, a society
based on #slave #labour, and one based on #wage labour, lies only in the
mode in which... #surplus-labour is in each case extracted from the
actual producer, the #labourer."
[Karl #Marx, Capital, Vol. I, p. 200]
“Capital has not invented surplus-labour.
Wherever a part of society possesses the monopoly of the means of
production, the labourer, free or not free, must add to the working time
necessary for his own maintenance an extra working time in order to
produce the means of subsistence for the owners of the means of
production, whether this proprietor be the Athenian καλός καγαθός,
Etruscan theocrat, civis Romanus, Norman baron, American
slave owner, Wallachian Boyard, modern landlord or capitalist."
