    Karl Marx's essay "Estranged Labor" argues that under capitalism, workers become alienated from the products of their labor. Workers are exploited through hard labor but see little reward, as capitalists take most of the profits generated. This estranges workers and disenfranchises them, as they produce more but take less home. Marx asserts that capitalism unfairly empowers capitalists by exposing workers to difficult work solely to generate monopoly power for business owners.

    “Estranged Labor”

    By Karl Marx

    Capitalism, in our political economy, is an unfair system between the capitalists and the
    workers. To begin with, capitalism teaches the people in the economic world to gain monopoly
    power by exposing workers into hard labor and exploit consumers. By exposing the workers into
    labor, there happens to be an alienation of workers from the products of their labor. The more
    products they produce, the less the worker takes home for himself. Basically, the capitalists are
    putting their workers at risk of hard labor but at the same time these laborers are being
    disenfranchised.
