labor power. Capitalism flourishes by extracting surplus value, or profit, from the .
commodities produced by the working class. Without capitals and profits there are .
obviously no wages and a place to do any type of labor power; and without wage labor .
capital cannot increase itself. Both are dependent on each other for the flourishing of .

Capitalism is a form of life that does not do justice to human abilities and .
capacities; it is a division from basic powers to humans and the exploitations of .
human workers. Workers are forced to sell their labor power to capitalists and capitalists .
have no choice but are forced to exploit labor to gain capital; therefore the laborers are .
commodities themselves in the capitalist market. As the result of Capitalism, labor has .
been under admonition and oppression. Instead of picturing the world as it is, Capitalism .
pictures the world in a distorted view. A view that leads to the alienation of the true .
meaning of human nature. The view that places the products of laborers more important .
than the laborers themselves; thus the laborers are objectified. Laborers then do not .
realize that they are the ones who are in control of the product that they produce. .
"Alienated labor hence turns the species-existence of man, and also nature as his mental .
species capacity, into an existence alien to him, into the means of his individual .
existence." (Marx 91) The distorted view leads to the miscognition of self of the working .
class who are cut off from their essential powers. They fail to realize that the world is of .
their own making and that they have the ability to create and recreate the world in which .
they live in. Marx's theory of privileging of economic matters places an emphasis on .
class struggles that are related to the forces of production as well as the relations of .
productions. Economics is the production of the exchange of goods and services through .
