Yeah, it will be the same here, it's by design. That was the argument I was having with @Infose above. Karl Marx showed that a government needs to keep the price of living high in order to compel wage labour. Marx found this account made by Wakefield (the written account made by Wakefield while was waiting in a cell apparently) .
First of all, Wakefield discovered that in the Colonies, property in money, means of subsistence, machines, and other means of production, does not as yet stamp a man as a capitalist if there be wanting the correlative — the wage-worker, the other man who is compelled to sell himself of his own free will. He discovered that capital is not a thing, but a social relation between persons, established by the instrumentality of things.[4]Mr. Peel, he moans, took with him from England to Swan River, West Australia, means of subsistence and of production to the amount of £50,000. Mr. Peel had the foresight to bring with him, besides, 300 persons of the working class, men, women, and children. Once arrived at his destination, “Mr. Peel was left without a servant to make his bed or fetch him water from the river.”[5]Unhappy Mr. Peel who provided for everything except the export of English modes of production to Swan River!
