Time and labor

Time, at least as we understand it, is also a byproduct of capitalism.

• In early human cultures, delineations of time were broad understandings of when the sun came up and went down, when the seasons changed. 
• As industrialization became the norm, time became a mechanized system that no longer served those who’d invented it. We increasingly served at the beck and call of time, for that is how those who possessed capital could best regulate those who performed the labor.
