Category: Leftism - Labor Theory of Value

This meme is a sarcastic commentary on the idea that people often make claims about their accomplishments or skills without actually having the experience or knowledge to back them up. The text in the image reads: "You don't 'make' $15/hour. You 'make' 100s or 1000s of $ worth of product each hour and sell it for $15. You don't 'make' a car. You 'make' hundreds of parts and sell them for $10,000. You don't 'make' a house. You 'make' thousands of bricks and sell them for $10,000. You don't 'make' a movie. You 'make' hundreds of hours of content and sell it for $10." The author is making a point about the difference between making something and selling it, and how often people get this wrong.
