    Paradoxically, the incoherence of this reply speaks volumes. Does the manager of the capitalist firm base her choice of input on something other than market price. If so, what?

    @Form FThank you,Of course, the manager of the capitalist firm tries to make most profit in shortest time. 

    This doesn't answer my question. How does the manager make the choice?

    This question is to everyone.Let’s say that we have got rid of capitalist society.Let’s say that new society needs some wood.New society must fell and cut trees into boards.Next new society must dry boards.The new society must choose.Will they 1) air dry or 2) kiln dry?How will they choose?There’s no need to answer that they will choose by votes.In that case, I will just need to ask how voter will choose.I do not ask if they will choose 1 or 2.But I do ask how they choose. 

    I don't know. But suppose you have inputs A and B. Both materially 'do the job', they can be used in the same production process, and  both can be found on the market at the same price. How does the manager of the capitalist firm choose?

    Did you know that when you are in the DWP's Work Programme they make you watch propaganda films drooling over the likes of Dicky Branson and other sundry chancers in hand-made shirts. How the 'entrepreneurial skills' of these bloodsuckers have made the world an infinitely better place for the rest of us. I would like to report that you couldn't hear what was being said due to the cacophony of raspberries being blown by  the assembled long-term unemployed. But we were so shirt  scared of being sanctioned for not having 'the right attitude' the silence was deafening.
