Introduction In 1966 the Beatles released their ‘Revolver’ album with the hit song of ‘Taxman’. Within the context of the song George Harrison articulated the excessive and unfair nature of taxation with “...If you drive a car, I’ll tax the street, If you try to sit, I’ll tax your seat, If you get too cold, I’ll tax the heat, If you take a walk, I’ll tax your feet...” This song was written with the intention of protesting the excessive taxation by the United Kingdom’s Wilson government, which…

The question of whether or not the free market is immoral begs the question of whether a system of trade can have morals in the first place. Capitalism, or the free-market, cannot be inherently immoral, but people do have the freedom to engage in immoral behavior within the free-market system if they so choose.

In order to achieve fair wages and benefits,…

Smith sees the division of labor as a constructive system and a means of furthering exchange, leading to the use of money. Marx, on the other hand, finds labor to turn…

theorized that the value is a function of a worker’s labor. In Capital Volume One, Karl Marx illuminates this idea and adds nuances to it, explaining underlying relationships between labor and value. Namely, Marx introduces the concept of socially necessary labor-time and uses it as a point of departure for considering the links between labor, value, and material wealth. In Capital, Marx elucidates the intrinsic role of socially necessary labor-time in a commodity’s value, then uses his analysis…
