Ferdinand Lassalle (11 April 1825 – 31 August 1864) was a German socialist. He believed that workers should receive the undiminished product of their labour, while Marx believed a sum had to be deducted to support society as a whole and to replace damaged means of production.[1] Lassalle also opportunistically supported Prussian hegemony.[2]
