worker has to sell to an employer, the
buyer of labor-powcr.
For example, a worker starts out in
the morning to find employment. His
line of work requires, say, the use of
machinery, or of land, or of both, as
in modern farming He possesses him
self neither machinery nor land. But
he has stored up in his body a capacity
known as labor-power which he
wishes to sell to a boss. He offers it
for sale on the open competitive labor
market
But to sell an hour, or eight hours,
of his labor-poWer to an owner of land
or machinery the worker must sell
also his own life, must sell HIMSELF
for the time being, with his labor
power He has to be on the job in
order to deliver his commodity, the
labor-power which the boss has
purchased eight or ten hours of, or
the equivalent thereof in products,
1t amounts to the same thing insofar
as the wage-slave is concerned.
! Wage-slave, because if the boss
owns ones labor-power for the hour
or the day he owns the seller thereof,
who cannot be divorced from his one
commodity, laborpOwer. He might as
we'll be chattelslave, or an auto
matte engine, for the time being. His
employer, in giving him two dollars
for his labor power is merely handing
| him the equivalent of so much fuel
and lubricating oil, and covering to
prevent the machine from being in
jured by the weather. This we eX-
press in terms of so much food, cloth
| ing and shelter.
If the employer gives the wage
slave two dollars for a days work, it
means simply that two dollars is the
average price of a days food, clothing
and shelter The two dollars is the eX-
change value of his work-his labor
power-the proportion in which the
wage-slave's work is exchanged with
other commodities; and the exchange
value of any commodity expressed in
money is called its price. Wage is,
therefore" says Marx, "Only another
name for the price of work-fOr the
price of this peculiar piece of prop
erty which can have no local habita-
ton at all except in human flesh and
blood" Thus the two dollars paid for
days work are the price of, say, ten
hours work "Work is, therefore, y
declares Marx, "as much commodity
as sugar, neither more nor less, only
they measure the former by the clock,
the latter by the scales
Marx is careful to explain fully that
wages are not the workers share of
the commodities which he has pro
duced Wages are the share of com
modities previously produced-like as
not by other laborers-With which the
employer purchases a certain amount
of productive labor, What the worker
produces for himself with his labor
power is not clothes, shoes, palaces,
automobiles, machinery, etc, but
merely his wage, the cost of keeping
him alive and in working condition,
so that he can produce gold and wheat
and cattle and merchandise for the
capitalist class.
