Shawn Fain: Time is not freely given to the working class.
He says productivity in society has skyrocketed since industrial revolution, but productivity hasn't changed.
Fain says workers sacrifice time with family and friends, and time for other things we wish to do.
He asks: Are the employers going to act? Will Congress act? How can working-class people take back their time?.
Three families in the U.S. have as much wealth as the bottom 50 percent of citizens in this country.
The people I'm talking about are the Wall Street freeloaders, the masters of passive income.
Those who profit off the labor of others have all the time in the world, he says.
