The old proletariat sold its labor power in order to subsist. The new proletarian sells his labor power in order to consume.

Recently, while riding the Q101 bus during rush hour, I found it interesting and kinda' fun to watch the driver interact with his regular passengers -- but one exchange really stood out. A weary man, maybe in his mid-60s, labored his way up the steps and onto the bus.
The driver remarked with a chuckle: Two more days.
These simple words seemed to make the tired man -- along with a few other worn out commuters -- nod and smile with hope.
You see, it was Wednesday and these folks were essentially wishing away 48 hours of their meager time on earth so they could have permission to do what they really want to do on the weekend.
As for what they do with such free time, Ill get to that in a moment. Lets first consider how intensely and relentlessly were all conditioned.
