    The version I remember being told had the first little pig just look around and see straw, the second little pig had to go gather sticks from the nearby woods, and the third little pig had to actually make the bricks over days.

      Amazing how all of this is purely labour and no capital.

      But capitalist parasites keep shilling it

        “Capital” would be:

        1. whatever oven or kiln the 3rd pig is using to make the bricks

        2. how the 3rd pig is getting paid / eating during the lengthier time it takes for him to make bricks and then build a more labor intensive construction

        But thanks for playing

          1. in the story, he dried them in the sun.

          2. the story says the pigs who did less work spent the days playing not getting paid and buying food

            No man that sun drying shit is expansion universe, not canon. And the author has said himself that pig 3 was on retainer for a masonry company.

            No some of the capital that paid for the pig’s upkeep during his build period was the proceeds from natural resources that were conserved during a season of plenty to be sold in a time of scarcity. If you want to call eating less in the summertime “labor” with a capital L you can while I sit here and laugh. Capital is just liquidity. You can generate it by labor but that doesn’t make it the same as labor or the property of others who have labor to give.
