Capital has always been created by labor. It's never created by property or resources. From the creation of coins to the mining of gold and silver to the printing of fiat currency and the numbers in a bank's computer they were all created by labor of one kind or another. Capital itself is a social force that is privately owned but set in motion by all of society and that contradiction has persisted because of the past when the production of surplus value was limited and so a small ruling class was needed to make all the decisions. But capitalism creates the universal laborer the universal machine operator reducing even the proud middle class professions to nothing more than laborers and paid slaves of the bougoies class. .

@jillybelphegor4819 Of course because all the brave talk of bourgeois rights and bourgeois freedoms is nothing more a religious cover for the rain of free competition in the marketplace. A place where capital accumulates at the expense of the laborer while the laborers must drive against capital to put the accumulation of past labor in the service of expanding the life of the laborer. This what the class struggle is about. .
