«Ολόκληρο το σύστημα της καπιταλιστικής παραγωγής βασίζεται στο γεγονός ότι ο εργάτης πουλά την εργατική του δύναμη ως εμπόρευμα» (1867a: 430).
Ο Μαρξ το καθιστά αυτό σαφές σε πολλά σημεία. Βλ., μεταξύ άλλων: 1863a, σ. 45· 1863c, σσ. 471–472, 490–491· 1865a, σ. 879 κ.ε.· 1865b, ενότητα VII· 1867a, κεφ. VI· 1878, σσ. 119–120, 357, 389.
