Roger has gone barmy again. He really thinks that the price of something has little to do with its value? Is the value of labour power, then an entirely ideal sum that has no manifestation in reality?

The value of labour power is the principle determinant of the wage. All other fluctuations are secondary. -- Jim heartfield
