People are withering away on backbreaking, poverty trap jobs with no hope of upward mobility but they try to distract us with culture wars. Over 60% live paycheck-to-paycheck while billionaires continue to suck our blood.
Boeing, Intel, and now Hollywood have lost their way. They’ve forgotten how to create high quality products. Maybe they’re signs that we are an empire in decline,
It gives me no pleasure, but the shtlibs need a lesson. Musk said things will get harder with his planned cuts, but the working class is already overstretched. Whatever chicanery he's planning could trigger a general strike that would cripple the economy. I think we are not the good guys and deserve any harm coming to us.
We come up with this? Unless we degrow and changing our voracious consumption habits, civilization is doomed. We are more dependent on Earth’s climate than we realize. It’ll NOT go well for humanity.
How much harder is a middle-class living gonna get? As we get older “upskilling” gets more difficult and the grind doesn't get any easier. Soon working will be as bad for your health as alcohol and cigarettes.
As we Agee our bodies begin to breakdown. We need the Retirement Age lowered not raised. By t I suppose we must work harder, and harder to further enrich the oligarchs.
