People who are forced to work at jobs they hate, desperate to keep that job even though it robs them of life-force more than it pays them in money, who nevertheless need it because it is the only way to survive, are in a very real way not free.

"Cursed is the ground because of you; through painful toil you will eat food from it all the days of your life. It will produce thorns and thistles for you, and you will eat the plants of the field. By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food until you return to the ground."

Since we’ll never be able to shake loose the power structure that’s oppressing us maybe we can get them to make $7.25 the maximum wage. And then as the cost of living continues to increase....😐 ....follow the accelerationists line of logic🤷🏽‍♂️ Are there any other choices left?!

All too often the path to achieving true financial freedom and creating enough spare time to enjoy life and your family, w/out having to slave away, is usually to shift from being a salve to a master, and do it w/some sociopathy so you can sleep at night. Regards, Capitalism.

Oh yes, yes indeed, esp., if you have a real talent you don’t cultivate and are frozen by circumstance
