* From: sartesian < Now this last distinction is key for Brenner, for Brenner is last, first, and foremost examining, analyzing, the conditions of labor, the social relations of property that encapsulate labor and either advance or inhibit its productivity.
^^^ CB: In this process, labor is evolving into variable capital. The more money made from the colonies, the more money capital to invest in emerging variable capital in England through M-C-M(2). The investment of the money in emerging variable capital also is one of the causes of that labor evolving into fullblown variable capital. The pristine proletarian movement into the cities was financed in part by money made in the colonies. So, the activities in the colonies are part of the cause of the original creation wage-labor/capital relations _in England_. Otherwise, why would they spend so much on the colonies ? ^^^^
