    Basically everything that Marx writes about capitalists is based on belief that there exists collective class interest.

    Any CEO worth their salt will just fuck over their competitors if given chance, not act for good of capitalist class.

    Whole idea of "reserve army of labor" is based on belief that capitalists will act to their own detriment for good of other capitalists.

      What is cornering the market?

      What is a monopoly?

      What is a cartel/oligopoly?

      Lolol

      The purpose of a CEO is to make as much money as possible, not "fuck over their competitors", e.g form a monopoly. The path of least resistance is forming a price cartel with like one guy - i.e the immediate outcomes of early capitalism and the defining characteristics of the founding of most capitalist states.

      Try getting healthy insurance or a phone plan today lmao. Try for 5 minutes to get municipal fiber in your city.

      These rubes think the point of competition is to compete forever. The point of is to win.
