| Question 462: Which two sets of conditions must be satisfied for labor-power to be a commodity? |
| [1631] Nazgul: Marriage. The marriage of labor-power and commodity is a beautiful thing. In order for labor-power to take on the commodity name, two conditions must first be met. The first condition is that labor-power must come to the market place, a coming out party if you will. Commodities are the reflection of social relationships among people, these social relations occur in the market place. |
| Labor-power is only realized when put into action, therefore the second condition is that the individual does not have the means of production to sustain the labor-power into action. The laborer therefore must enter the market place with the intent to offer their labor-power because they have not the means to put their labor-power into action where it can become a commodity. Once the above occurs the laborers labor-power can now take on the commodity name. |
