Unfree labour

[edit]

It is a matter of etiquette, at Wikipedia, that major edits to a page are discussed, e.g. at Talk:Unfree_labour before they are made. I am the original authour of the page, I do not agree with your edits, especially the wiping of a whole paragraph. I would like to know what you see as "contentious" about the way it read/s.Grant65 (Talk) 00:19, Aug 9, 2004 (UTC)

In particular, it is simply incorrect to state that unfree labour occurs "for less pay than the wealth created by the worker", because that would include the vast majority of workers in the world. As the article now says: "under capitalism, workers never keep all of the wealth they create, as some of it goes to the profit of the capitalist." In other words, why would anyone want to be an employer, if they did not extract some of the "wealth"? Grant65 (Talk) 01:44, Aug 9, 2004 (UTC)
