8220; Unequal exchange was built into the labor market from the beginning. That unequal exchange results not from the sale of labor-power as such, but from the fact that privilege (state-enforced scarcity of land and capital) makes land and capital artificially costly and forces labor to sell itself in a buyer’s market, paying a premium for access to the means of production. This is why effort is the source of all exchange value. We regularly engage in dialogue with Kevin Carson, whose mutualist approach I find very interesting, in particular because it suggest a reconciliation between the market and peer to peer principles.

Closer to home, throughout California during the Depression, unemployed workers formed associations to bring food from farms, repair housing, and create a modest economy based on labor exchanges, not money.
