“You have a guy in a factory making widgets, the other guy next to him is making widgets, as well. The guy who makes widgets faster is - in your hypothetical - then benefitted by some additional compensation? My first issue with that is that’s usually not the case. In fact, that person usually ends up doing more work for the same amount of money, because what motivation does the capitalist have to pay that person more money?”
Will Ercole is a lawyer, MMA fighter, and staunch Marxist. This is a juicy, philosophical conversation about communism versus capitalism. It’s no small task to trade worldviews of politics, economics, and psychology!
“We want a world where people are working as hard as they can, but we just don’t want them working for unfair compensation. We want them working for full compensation for their labor. And we want them working not for one boss, but for their neighbors, their community, everybody.”
