Do you know what surplus value is?

By definition? Not so much.

Maybe by YOUR definition.

without labor enterpreneuship doens't have value.

Also known as theft

If you want to defend capitalism, you have to defend that as well and then we can have a more legitimate discussion

Entrepenure ship is about starting businesses, do you know what you are talking about?

I ain't defending capitalism one bit, what I am doing is stating that your beliefs are shit.

How does it steal from workers again?

@Deleted User surplus wealth is a form of waste and then the capitalists sits around contributing nothing to society and distorting social and power relations between people who would otherwise be equals

It is theft plain and simple

that is the core of capitalist society

How is it a form of waste? It's a good thing, and it also means you can spend a lot of it.

How is it theft though?

Let's say a guy goes and buys a restaurant and puts a manager there who do all the hiring and logistics. The restaurant has 10 employees, who get's on average 10 usd per hour. Let's say the restauran in a week makes 15k of profit. The 10 employees combined make 4k a week and the owner makes 11k. The 10 employees do ALL the work in this scenario and the owner does none at all. Who generates the value?

Is it you the worker or the person who does nothing?

Woudlen't the owner? Because he was the person who personally organized the construction of the building, the set up and founding of the business, the management of it, and the eventual expansion of it, in which he has to hire people who will generate a profit for him, which will give him money to expand his business, while also giving his workers benefits, more time off, and less hours.

Let me tell you, the owner just dosen't collect it and tell the workers to piss off, no he actually has to spend it back into the company, which will then go back to the workers one way or the other, be it benefits, unions, or whatever.

The only jobs that don't offer this are part time, low effort and low paying jobs, in which your job is pretty much expendable, and has little worth at all.

That or CHINESE and VIETNAMESE jobs.

(Ironically, from so called communist countries.)

Fine you should be rewarded for taking risk. But rewarded in perpetuity?

BTW I have to leave Gn comrade

What do you mean by that?

Good evening leftypol, what are we debating today?

Nice to see you too @Deleted User

Rhinos are warrior unicorns

Change my mind

Did 4/pol/ raid us again?

Oooo there is a rivalry at place?

@Deleted User I mean ideas have a finite monetary value

especially if the person didn't even own the restaraunt and just bought it from someone else

BTW I'm really not seeing how you're an 'anti-capitalist-'

@When Things Aren't Right Go Left The hell are you talking about?

We ended this argument 24 hours ago when you left.
