Reply #135: You're Ignoring Other Forms of Exploitation, No?

[Yavin4]

What about the retailer that sells you goods for more than what he/she paid for it? Is that not also exploitation?

What about the home owner that sells their home for more than what they paid for it?

Labor exploitation is but one form of exploitation, and in a fluid, regulated, market-based capitalistic system, workers move in and out of the exploited role all of the time. Today, you may be a temp for a large corporation. Tomorrow, you own your own corporation. Today, you borrow money. Tomorrow, you lend it.

No one is forced into an exploitative labor role. No one.
