I think the most important point about Marx analysis is, that this statement may or may not be true. There is nothing in the 'capitalist production process,' which guarantees that the workers are treated well ( or even survive their workday). If the bourgeois gains a advantage by treating his workers well, he will do it. On the other hand, if he gains a advantage by hurting his workers then he will either do it, or be replaced by someone who is willing to hurt his workers.
