Hey guys, has anyone ever studied any of Marx's theory? in particular his theory of "The Production of Surplus Value"? I found his book online, and found the section that deals with this theory (Capital, Volume I, Part III, Chapter VII, Section 1 and 2)
here is the link
http://www.marxists.org/archive/marx...67-c1/ch07.htm

the problem is, after reading it over and over, i just don't get what he is trying to say, or what his point is.

Can anyone give me a brief summery or gimme some clues into understanding what his theory is stating?

Thanks, your help is greatly appreciated.
