It is one of the greatest misapprehensions to speak of free, human, social labour, of albour without private property.

For the capitalist who has others to work for him, buying and selling is a major function.

Capital Marx's fundamental aim was to lay bare the laws of motion which govern the origins, the rise, the development, the decline and the disappearance of a given social form of economic organization: the capitalist mode of production.

For Marx, there are no economic laws valid for each and every basically different form of society
