Time can in fact be exchanged. For example, jail -- some action is traded for a timeout from society. Also, learning is a time-based process to replace entropy with reason, increasing resources from scarcity.
- Zxian 5y agoTime is a consumable. It is not infinite, and it is unique to each individual. We do not "trade" time in jail between society and an individual. We deny certain freedoms for a period of time. There is no economic equivalent when it comes to time. Learning is a process that consumes time now for improved capability or efficiency in the future.
