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.
“Capital” would be:
whatever oven or kiln the 3rd pig is using to make the bricks
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
So all capital is sourced from labour?
Hmmm
