> a single creature, which I may add, could be seen as the epitome of > capitalism - soulless industrial magnates wandering in search of profits, > and sucking people dry in the process. > Wojtek as Marx wrote: 'Capital is dead labour, that, vampire-like, only lives by sucking living labour, and lives the more, the more labour it sucks.' (Capital 1, p. 233, Intl Pub) and 'Capital posits the permanence of value by incarnating itself in fleeting commodities and taking on their form ...But capital obtains this ability only by constantly sucking in living labour as its soul, vampire-like.'
