Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844 and the Manifesto of the Communist Party

In the Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844 Marx explains how under capitalism people rely on labor to live. In the past people could rely on Nature itself for their natural needs; in modern society if one wants to eat one must work: it is only through money that one may survive. Thus man becomes a slave to his wages. It is only through his work that he can find enough money to continue to live; but he doesn't simply live he actually only survives as a worker.
