If they owned the means of production, they probably wouldn’t work so hard

Pretty strong classist vibes. Those fucking poor are too damn lazy, am I right?

It's not a question of class, it's a question of labour vs motivation/reward.

This still has a behaviouralist slant though, and perhaps that's because I find the concept of unalienated labour hard to envision the practicalities/pragmatics of. Perhaps due to having never seen such a thing (having always lived under Capitalism).
