Question 1<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to our previous reading 5.1, \u201cM\u201d equals money whereas \u201cC\u201d represents commodity. Therefore, the first letter that would start the diagram would be \u201cC\u201d using the formula C-M-C.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The working class is defined as workers or laborers that comprises those engaged in waged or salaried labor. Their only means of economic survival is to work and earn a waged. The working class includes all those who have nothing to sell except their labor, and includes both white and blue-collar workers, manual, and a diversity of mental workers. Karl Marx defined the working class as \u201cindividuals who sell their labor for wages and who do not own the means of production\u201d. He argues that the working class was responsible for the very creation of wealth of a society, through the building of bridges; craft furniture, nursing children, and agriculture although never own land or factories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the book \u201cDemocracy For The Few\u201d the writer for instance gave an illustration of the working class dynamics portraying the author (laborer) of a book who does not make profits on his book rather earns royalties for the labor of writing it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Similarly, editors, proofreaders, printers, and salespersons a contributed labors adding to the market value of the book. Nevertheless, all profits on the book go to the capitalist, the owner of the publishing house who contributed nothing to the value of the book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One assertion made by the writer that rings so true and in high volume was that seen on page 29, \u201cWhile corporations are often called \u201cproducers\u201d, the truth is they produce nothing\u201d. Organizations are indeed a tool for exploitation of labor to accumulate capital. The recognized producers are the workers\/laborers who apply their strength, brain, skills and creativity of goods and services. Capitalist implies that they are \u201cputting their money to work\u201d not withstanding that money in itself does not work; it takes the laborer to produce so that profit maybe realized. In conclusion, the working class are never the class with the necessary financial resources or money \u201cM\u201d therefore the appropriate diagram that best represent this class would be on that starts with the letter \u201cC\u201d commodity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
