Surplus Value, Marx and Working girls
Well here’s a nice indie film by Lizzie Borden a sex worker/film maker with a Marxist Critique of the brothel system . My kind of girl!! Made in 1986, it’s called Working Girls. Mirrors my own experience in places like this but little cleaned up but good . If you want a inside look in I recommend this classic. She made this movie with her own sex worker money. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lizzie_Borden_(director)
Free speech is not free you need money amplify that voice. One reason the ruling class might want to keep women poor. How many movies today to the talk about Marx’s theory surplus value. https://youtube.com/shorts/H0Q0iqBVU0Q?si=cJ4dGtKQjqfaGTAr
surplus value is the difference between the cost of producing a product and the amount of money made from selling it. In Marxist economics, it's the amount of profit a capitalist makes from a worker's labor.
Explanation
In Marxist theory, surplus value is the difference between the value of a worker's labor and the value of what they produce.
It's the amount of labor a worker performs that goes beyond what's required to pay them for their work.
Surplus value is a measure of the capitalist's profits and the worker's exploitation.
The capitalist claims ownership of the product, the worker's labor, and the means of production.
Example
If a worker produces a commodity that's worth more than the cost of the materials, labor, and plant used to make it, then the difference is surplus value.
