British scientist J.D. Bernal in " Science in History " explained the significance of " exploitation " in the capitalist system
The less than one percent of the population of capitalist America ( " OUR democracy " ) who own nearly as much wealth as the rest of the population combined are simply not infinitely more talented and hard working than the rest of the population. Any sociologist who really thinks like a scientist will appreciate the Marxist concept of " exploitation ". British scientist J.D. Bernal in " Science in History " explained it quite well:
[" Marx thus demonstrated that capitalism ,far from being a system of natural justice as the classical economists maintained, was one of extortion imposed by arbitrary force. It was the central concept of EXPLOITATION ,which the economists had hidden from themselves , that was to give the explosive force to Marx's teaching ".
.... " It was not that workers and peasants had not felt exploited for centuries, it was rather that now they could understand the mechanism through which the exploitation was carried on ".
" The implications of Marxism were so repugnant to the ruling bourgeoisie of the time that it is not surprising that for another fifty years all over the world , and until today in a large part of it , they were ignored and rejected by the official exponents of social science . "]
( Bernal's book was first published in Great Britain 1954 )
