  • Capitalists want a workforce that is desperate and does not have basic needs met. So the argument is that if people aren't desperate enough they won't work? Think about medical care. If you owned a factory wouldn't you want workers to show up, healthy and fed and ready to work? Sure they do, but they would rather have desperate people who have no choice but to work for pennies, who can't afford to take time off to vote or strike.

  • The difference between GDP per capita and Income per capita is the amount extracted from workers by corporations

  • For public services and non profit, here you say you think wages are the only component included: "But in many cases those services represent the value. So what winds up being included is just the wage." When you say "just the wage" it means you don't think other costs are included (materials, overhead).

    I speculated that the total cost must be used. Then you say the truth is exactly like you say but the quote you provide says this "the value of government output is deemed to be exactly equal to the total cost of the wages paid to public servants plus the cost of intermediate inputs."

    If you look up the definition of intermediate inputs you'll see it includes other services, goods, and energy. So in the case of nursing they include medical supplies, electricity, and office costs like payroll services. It doesn't seem like that's what you said in your first post.

    Regarding dividends, they are a distribution of profit. They are not a cost. Shareholders own a portion of the company. In a privately owned company the owner may transfer money from the company account to his personal account. This is not a cost for the business. In the same way, payments of dividends is a distribution of profit to shareholders.

  • In the case of a public utility or non profit organization that does not generate any profit, the value of a service is probably measured using its cost. Even though wages may account for the majority of the cost there are always material costs and overhead. I'm only referring to your example where you say the value of a service only includes wages.

    You mention dividends and say they are not retained by the company. They are profit that is distributed to shareholders. What a company does with its profit is irrelevant to the discussion.

    Price - Cost = Profit

    My statement in the original post could only be true if all costs are derived from labor. I just spent a few minutes reading this reddit post on Marx's economic theory https://www.reddit.com/r/askphilosophy/s/pKHF2zltlj
