The Marx-Engels Reader
This section begins with talking about the topic of political economy. He goes
into detail about how there’s a distinction between capitalist and land-rentier in
which will become two classes the property-owners and the propertyless workers.
He talks about how there a large competition in the political economy for property
and labor. It seem as if when talking about labor and man he saying that the more
and harder they work do the less they receive, that the more commodity he creates
the cheaper they become. Its hard to understand why is it that they harder they
work the lower they become or receive. It show how hard men work but how far they
got.
The work between a man and labor is something very natural but he’s saying
that the more you work the more you’re alienating yourself from that object. We
must give ourselves to our work, which we must become the physical subject. In the
political economy there’s a negative relation between the worker and the product,
you see the great and beautiful outcomes for the product but it gives a negative

outcome towards the worker. Next he goes to explain the concept of forced labor the
idea that man is unhappy at work, which he is happy at home and work does
nothing but bring him down.
