[quote:Anonymous Coward 43642585:MV8yNDk2MDU1XzQzMDcwNTEwXzM2MUIwMERB] [quote:grimloche:MV8yNDk2MDU1XzVBQ0E0RTFB] I work all day, come home, and all I read is horrifying things about the world. I'm making almost no money. How is 12 hours possibly worth $90? My time is worth more than that. Why should I give my time away for money that has no backing, so that the powers at be can just ass ram me forever? Why aren't we fighting back? Why are we killing ourselves slowly with shit jobs? No matter how much I meditate, how much fun I attempt to have, it always comes back around to remembering that oh yeah, we're living in hell on Earth RIGHT NOW. [/quote] We live in a plutocracy this means those who have money make the rules. In English your 90$ is all the people high up (banks investors etc) have decided your worth in that specific task. You cant do much to fight em other than going into business yourself. The reason we arent fighting back is obvious none of our cultures are warrior cultures any longer where the ruler of the land feared every single day that the army he lead, or his people might turn on him in a heart beat. Todays goverment does not fear its people, hence why we are where we are. [/quote]
