@randomxnp Wages are not profit. Profit comes from unpaid labor. By definition profit and wages are mutually exclusive. The money spent on wages cannot be profit. If I'm a capitalist and I hire you for 7 dollars an hour, then the money I spend paying you is the opposite of profit, it's money required for the production process, not the extra gained from it. Workers don't make profits, workers make wages by selling their labor power.

@SteelHaole You do realize it's supposed to be a parody of School House Rock right?

"no matter where i worked it was all the same"

"fellow worker, you look mighty unhappy"

"as long as you sell yourself, you can't be yourself"

@randomxnp - you nailed it on all counts! Still worth mentioning that Karl himself never held a real job, never mind any form of "labor", since he married a woman from one of the most powerful, hereditary titled and privileged families in Europe. What a befuddled, drooling old hypocrite. No wonder he's a hero to so many dole scum and other parasites.

@aljanabification Intelligent? In what way? In applauding a political system that killed between 50 and 200 million people in the 20th century? In being ignorant of the basic economics of value? In being ignorant of the ideas of a transaction beneficial to both parties? In complaining of having to work hard for material wealth far greater than that available to any but the tiniest minority under the alternative political system he praises? You need to look up the definition of intelligent.

"The more I spent, the more I'd end up owing" - that's because you were greedy, idiot. You spent more than the amount you earned, despite your admission that this was good pay. revolting sense of entitlement.
