[60] ZACH: Lazy in an exploitive system? To paraphrase Marx on page 129:2, it might seem that the lazier the worker
the more the commodity would cost because it would take longer. But, as he
says later in the paragraph, it is not how long it takes a worker to make
the product, but can the worker make it in the time frame that is socially
acceptable to make the product. Therefore, it is a character flaw to be
lazy in an exploitive system. If a worker is lazy and can't produce what
he/she is asked to in the allowed time that they are given by their
superior, then they usually will not keep their job. In our society today,
which is an exploitive system, it is important to be able to do your job as
efficiently as needed because companies today are always trying to beat the
competition. |
