According to karl marx, what is the source of capitalist profits? a. overuse of machines b. exploitation of workers c. overpricing of products d. free sources of raw materials e. organizational skills of capitalists

According to Karl Marx, the ultimate source of profits from capitalists is B. exploitation of workers.

Karl Marx believed that the labor cost that is given to the workers is way too less for the value they add to the product. He proposed that the profit that is earned by the capitalists comes only because the workers are not given the worth of their work.

If the workers are given as much value they add to the product, in the end, there would no profit left for the capitalist to fetch.

it is a part of john locke's natural rights popular during the age of enlightenment that people had inalienable rights to life, liberty and property. this was reflected by thomas jefferson in his declaration of independence as rights to life,liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

another line in the declaration of independence is that people have certain rights just because they are human. humans are capable of obeying the three natural rights john locke mentioned making them governable by these laws and therefore entitled to these rights as well.
