[lbo-talk] Definition of nation (was as if on cue)

[brad]

Over 80% of the population, including people who earn rather huge
salaries, are exploited. Joanna, for example, is probably much more
exploited than are Walmart clerks. To focus on Exploitation as "what
is wrong" is to splinter the working class, and it leads to bad
politics.

Exploitation has nothing to do with how much you make.  It also has
nothing to do with particular working conditions.  We are exploited
because we are alienated from the products of our labor.  That doesn't
splinter the working class, it constitutes it.  If you are throwing
exploitation out the window then what is left of your left politics,
Carrol?
