The form of Marx's argument is flawed from the start. Just look at the labor theory of value. It's easily refuted as a premise. Simply note the value of undeveloped land. Or note how the locksmith who takes an hour to get your van opened up hasn't provided any more value to you than the locksmith who takes ten minutes. Value is in the eye of the beholder, and the beholder varies dramatically - hence the existence of the market.
