An employer does not give a raise and disposable income to a worker. The worker is the creator of wealth, and the heirs collecting dividend profits are who are being given to. Your confusion about the directionality of created wealth within the relations of production is the whole point of the article.
- snidane 4y agoThe employer needs the worker's labor and ghe employee needs the employer's concentration of power. One needs the other and vice versa. Or are you suggesting the directionality is only one way? Marxists do think that way and they are wrong. The thing they are missing is the third factor of production (labor, capital, land) that was magically omitted from classical economics to make the conflict strictly between labor and capital. You end up with the left right divide blaming each other for wrongdoing even though these two factors are in symbiosis. It's the slumlord on the sidelines that enters the equation unnoticed, convinces the the parties to hate each other, while sucking away their blood like a good parasite.
