Punctuality and efficiency are not cultural values but capitalist values

I have been thinking a lot about punctuality and public decency for some time. We have internalised ideas about time, public norms , punctuality, efficiency as if they are Western cultural values and somehow we have to learn them. But after giving it a lot of thought, I realised these are not cultural values but modern capitalist values. A well oiled capitalist machine cannot function without it. Punctuality is capitalist value because time is literally money. Time is a value , a capitalist value violently imposed on working class folks to ensure production and profits. It is enforced on middle class management too. Efficiency and punctuality are necessary, critical for a well oiled capitalist machine. Politeness in the public space , understood public norms and public decency, too, ensure more stability and order. Europeans and Westerners project these as national cultural values but this is highly misleading. A good capitalist society values time, efficiency and public order. There is nothing cultural about being anal about time. Next time a European patronises you about time, I have been patronised far too many times to count as if I were some savage in my professional career, remember it is a capitalist value. Of course, we in Pakistan could do better time management, have better public order, be better at public decency but not because it is a culture but only to run things better.
