>It is the exploiters who would need moral reasons to object to exploitation.
Marx himself wasn't really exploited, though he took money from Engels, who got it from exploited labor. So why should Marx have spent his life on a critique of capitalism if not for some moral/ethical reason? Ditto the many Marxist intellectuals of the last 150 years.
And I thought that we wanted to get beyond a society based on self-interest.
