Abstract: Abstract Development efforts are blighted by labour marginality, namely labour that cannot find work because there can be no expectation of sufficient return for their employment to justify it. Overcoming labour marginality is a precondition for capitalist development through mass incomes and mass markets, as has been in the case for all high-income countries. A rudimentary stone-for-cash scheme illustrates how labour marginality can be overcome in specific locales by creating market conditions upon which labour can avail itself and the facilitating role the International Labour Organization can play.
