SEK3 on Wage Labor

"In an agorist society, division of labor and self-respect of each worker-capitalist entrepreneur will probably eliminate the traditional business organization - especially the corporate hierarchy, an imitation of the State and not the Market."

"[T]he whole concept of "worker-boss" is a holdover from feudalism. . ."

"[W]age-labor’s historical benefit may have been as great as the invention of the diaper—but surely toilet-training (in this case, entrepreneurialization) is even a more significant advance?"

"[T]here is nothing inherently "exploitative" in any genuinely voluntary agreement, such as agreeing to work for a wage. . .[however] under State Capitalism (as opposed to a truly free market) there is an exploitative relationship between the moneyed interests and the common people."

I always zap SEK3

He is the MAN

can we please use the right terms? state capitalism is oxymoron. You either have capitalism or collectivism if not autocracy

Capitalism is a statist ideology. Freed markets is anarchist. "Anarcho"-capitalism is not anarchism. If "anarcho"-capitalism were implemented it would be just a replacement of our actual government by Government LLC

I tend to agree. In a free economy, the workers would have a lot more bargaining power.

Everyone will be self-employed or be part of some sort of workers coop. Capitalist business will be the absolute exception rather than the rule

Amen

I wonder what SEK's thoughts on time preference and Imputation were.
