Workers exploit capitalists who start businesses that fail. Workers are paid more than they add in labour value to failed start-ups.
- A self-employed farmer scraping a living with the help of a part-timer is exploiting that worker while a manager who owns no shares on a salary of $500,000 a year is a downtrodden and exploited member of the proletariat!
- Elite athletes, celebrities and TV and movie stars are the most exploited of all proletarians. Itinerant workers with no income security at all. At the mercy of the selectors, record companies and studios. 15 minutes of fame is fleeting.
- Many capitalists scrape a living and often go bankrupt and lose their house and marriage after business failures while many workers are highly paid.
- The university educated are well-paid proletarians with low unemployment rates.
- How is your superannuation portfolio going? Riding high on the fat of the working class?
- Pension fund socialism was never a promise of long-run super-normal profits.
- Despite the majority of labour surplus now going back into the hands of workers in their retirement savings, the share market is still a dog or is it?
