Just a note, because I'm falling further behind on this thread. I don't think that illustrating or demonstrating exploitation is a particularly important part of Marx's critique.There was a perfectly good socialist movement in England prior to Marx which based itselfon Ricardo's economicsl It really trivializes Marx's titanic effort of analysis to reduce to "Capitalism is unfair." Gee whiz! who'd a thunk it.
