@karlitomarxismo@Logo_Daedalus@Bolsheprik I guess I was thinking of billable hours more abstractly, as a general hour of legal work worth x dollars, rather than specific completed work for one person. But since those abstract hours don’t exist in reality, I see why my point is moot.
@karlitomarxismo@Bolsheprik@Logo_Daedalus Thank you for taking the time to explain, I appreciate it. Please tell me if this is disputed by Marxism, but I thought that you still have the opportunity to sell the coffee to someone who values it more, therefore value is stored upon purchasing. This is uncommon, but possible
@karlitomarxismo@Bolsheprik@Logo_Daedalus I understand the billable hour to be an unfulfilled request for time spent on a legal matter. The client can choose to pay or not to pay. I’m sure trumps lawyers billed much more than they received

@Bolsheprik@Logo_Daedalus I have long been fond of his contrarian takes, and this one intrigues me greatly. I hope it will be explained, twitter search is too broken to find his previous explanations.
@Logo_Daedalus Billable hours are a commodity I think. My definition of commodity is pretty rudimentary though. I don’t know if you are going by a more formal definition.
