In case if someone buy machines and labor togather then that is not client and investor concept. So you have investor on one hand who is able to put is money, property, building etc or provide machine, its installation, building, license, while client can put his skill, labor etc for half and half profit while fuel also divided in half and half.

    Not only US but all Capitalist countries, because Capitalism works. The laborers and farmers (mazdoor aur kisaan) are well paid and very productive. In many big cities the plumbers make equal or more than doctors. You will never see any Capitalist country where mazdoor and kissan are revolting against Capitalism. Communism failed misrebly, just look at USSR, North Korea, Cuba. Even China realized that Communism doesn't work and quickly adapted to diluted form of Capitalism.

    I think you missed out on some important points regarding capitalism, such as: 1) Marx has analyzed capitalism as a progression in development of the productive forces historically (historical process). It has a positive role because it increases the output of human labor in an industrial society by treating human labor as a commodity in an industry, when compared to feudal and tribal societies which it replaces because they cannot increase productivity of human labor at their disposal. As per the principles of dialectics used in Marx analysis, every new system creates the seed of its own destruction; in capitalism this happens when labor as a commodity is replaced by finance capital to increase money (profit), thereby not increasing productivity because no labor is involved. This increase in money supply without increase in production tends to destroy the industrial relations of production. Marx develops the role of proletariat here to protect this system and to continue maximizing its efficiency by better control of the financial sector; this system he called socialism. So its all about scientific evolution of the historical process as the theoretical base, not moral grounds of ending exploitation and ending poverty. The latter aspect is an effect and not the main driving force of the communist struggles. However, in most places mistaking this effect as the main cause has led to the failure of left wing movements; the most glaring example is Pakistan where left wing was naively misled into feudal socialism, thereby finishing the fledgling communist forces for good. There are a couple of other points, but its too lengthy a comment for now.

    The second point to explain the point regarding shifting of industry from US and Europe to 3rd world: 2) For simplicity in explaining Marx's analysis, the first "progressive" part of capitalism is money buying labor to generate money and in the process increasing production (manufacturing), while the second "self-destructive" part of capitalism is using money (instead of labor) to generate more money without increasing production (financial sector). The top capitalist economies of US and Europe have moved from the first part to the second wherein they've shifted manufacturing to cheaper 3rd world countries, increasing their profits, which money finds its way back to the US or European financial markets, thereby hugely increasing their money supply / profits. However, the industrial working classes of these economies lose jobs and suffer, which factor was the cause for Bernie Sanders and Trump's dissenting policy line. Sanders has effectively been sidelined by the so called "liberal" Democratic Party, while Trump charisma is still going on. Time will tell whether Trump succeeds in effecting a change but its not likely or not easy if it makes some headway. Left wingers across the world have yet to fully understand the phenomenon. The great exception is China which has fully utilized the "progressive" part of capitalism with their private sector manufacturing / services sectors, while the financial sector is in state control to channel spending this immense wealth generated as per their country's development objectives; exactly what Marx expected of the Communist party. The newer entrant is Russia, which has of late realized that it will never be accepted by US and Europe as a partner in their capitalist domain. So these are changing times, which need to be understood by whatever left wing remains by an effective analysis for which Marxist dialectics is perhaps still the most relevant. Again too long for now.

    Since I'm at it, let me conclude the last point about definition of capitalism. The defining characteristic of capitalistic activity is using money to make more money. This activity has a history as long as the civilization itself, evidenced in debt credit systems, profits variously named as usury, interest or mark ups for deferred payments etc etc. Shylock was such a character in Shakespeare's Merchant of Venice and can be called a capitalist in modern terms. However, the system prevailing was feudal monarchies, and remained so till about 200 years ago when French and industrial revolutions led to demise of monarchies and feudal system. This was mainly because with the industrial revolution, capitalists employing labor as commodity started wealth generation that the feudals could not match and so were replaced by the capitalists as the wealthy elites. With the weakening monarchies, the political system introduced by the rich and powerful classes was democracy (or western democracy) as we call it till today. With both the political and economic domination, the system coming into place was called capitalism. Two specifically defining aspects of modern capitalism with olden times: 1) On the economy side, historically capitalists (Shylock like) had a personal face to them and were despised and kept lower down in the social ranking. Rulers were from the royalty or warriors who replaced the royalty occasionally. Christian Europe banned this usury instilled debt credit activity for Christians, and it was left to Jews who were outcasts otherwise. The Indian system had bania as the equivalent who were lower down in rank to Brahmins and the warriors. In China, debt credit was accepted as a necessary evil, so strictly controlled by their ruling classes. With the advent of faceless banks to control money in industrial age, the lenders became the working-class people putting in their extra cash into banks, while the borrowers became the influential capitalist-class. This was exactly the opposite of old times when lenders were the rich capitalists, lending money to the needy personal citizens or rich royalty for meeting war and administrative expenses. 2) On the political side, democracy is a faceless system, unlike old time monarchies who were "persons" who were replaced by their successors, so quickly producing an identifiable ruling class. The democratic system is run and controlled by the capitalist generated money, but people made to believe that they have a power to effect change. The faces do change but all belong to the same faceless capitalist ruling classes. Naturally every government protects the interests of capitalists, which was not so in olden times when monarchy and feudal elites worked to promote their interests and the old capitalists were at their mercy in a way. Often a new ruling monarchy would come in and cancel all the previous debt credit records, releasing debtors of their liabilities. Doesn't happen in modern capitalism, all state institutions are structured to protect the lenders. Very evident in the way US handles its great depressions. So capitalism sets in when the capitalists controlling the economy also control the government, usually through democracies in the developed world.

    There is a contradiction in capitalist mode of production. Yes, capitalism speed up the manufacturing but at the same time, buyers, majority of those are wage labors cannot afford to to buy products as capitalist already have stolen a big chunk of due wage of the labours or due to unemployment mainly caused by innovation in technologies.. That is why the capitalism is denounced by socialists. They want to replace this system with an economic system in which worker will control mean of productions(machines, land, raw material etc.) collectively and work place (factories etc) and get fair wage of their contribution in production. On the market side there will be equitable exchange of good and services. Those who criticize socialist solution fear that innovation and technological development will be stopped in socialism but their fear is baseless as democratic centralized government in socialism will ensured that technological and scientific advancement remain in pace. In fact ,in socialism more brilliant minds would be available to authorities as people will free from harsh labour hours inflicted by capitalist mode of production.

    @@NaiBaatt23 no. socialism breeds inefficiency. workers want more pay and less hours of work. poeple inherently dont want to work hard. however working hard is natural order. the chinese worked hard for several years and got themselves out of poverty. Wrking 12 hours per day looks like exploitation to people who are lazy. But for people who want to better their lot it is an opportunity to make more money. The critics never imagine a situation where people are willing to work hard and yet there is no opportunity. The markets need cheaper products to buy and this is possible by keeping labour costs low which in turn is done with lower wages and longer hours. The alternative is expensive products that no one wants to buy - expensive products are produced by people who work 4 hours a day, call in sick frequently, needs frequent vacations etc etc. There is no market for the expensive products and they then lose their jobs and then they ask govt for unemployment benefits and more free money thus making money worthless 🤣🤣🤣🤣

    Dr Taimur, the issue is not that you live and consume in a Capitalist system, you have no choice, even if you had a choice I bet you'd prefer to live in a Capitalist system rather than in a Communist/Socialist system, just as Faiz Ahmed Faiz preferred to live in London and not in Moscow. The main issue I have is the Hypocrisy of Pakistani Surkhas, many of whom run very successful businesses under the very evil Capitalist system while romanticizing and peddling the proven failed ideology of Communism/Socialism. By the way, have you Monetized your KZread channel? If so, please have some courtesy to give credit where it is due - the Evil Capitalist system.

    Firstly, I had the choice of moving abroad (since I have a Phd). I chose to live in Pakistan. Because it is my country. Second, Faiz never chose to live in London. He was in exile in London. He lived most of his life in Pakistan. Third, for us capitalism is not a sin (like religion) but a historically constituted mode of production. We have no problem with people from any class as long as they help to strengthen the labour movement. Please note that Engels himself was the owner of a factory. Last, you still have not heard my lecture because if you had you would have realised that earning money from my own labour is not capitalism.

And you cannot move to North Korea (the only Laborer's Paradise). As for Faiz, I know he was in exile, what I meant was that he chose to live in exile in a Capitalist country (UK) and not in a Communist country (USSR). He could have lived in exile in USSR, but he did not. Hundred and thousand of people are making money on KZread and other social media, thanks to Capitalism. What is wrong in raising capital from Capital markets. Where do many start ups raise funding from? I do listen to your lectures. To me it seems that you are talking about labour rights and welfare and and blaming the lack of it to Capitalism. I agree labors are not treated and compensated fairly in many developing countries including Pak. There should be laws for labors rights and welfare and be enforced.
