Work! it's not what it's cracked up to be

[right-clicking]

Is it just me or are there others of the same opinion? This work ethic nonsense is a con to trick the low classes to be subservient to the educated rich! They want you to bow and scrape, except minimum wage to enslave you to a poverty trap. Really, think about it. since the industrial revolution started we have all been sold a crock of shite, work all the hours God sends, scrape by, make do and humbly go cap in hand for a piss poor pay-packet. Them we had self serving unions who after doing a reasonable job of freeing the children from the chimney sweeps and such like. now the rich have crippled their effectiveness, we are now all in this together, Ha bloody Ha. All this great new advances in technology has freed the worker from his labour-intense past and succeeded in reducing him into unemployment! Great innit?

Then we are labelled as work shy, even though we've retrained and up-skilled. The unemployed should go on strike! Demand a re-brand "WE ARE THE LEISURE CLASS"

Never forgive never forget...born to rule - Cleggster my ass needs wiping run along and get the moist wipes - what's the odds Huhne gets off a custodial because he knows too much. Good to see Gorgeous George is back to pour some bile down their necks.

I think the level of intransigence in our society curbs and curtails the true levels of work actually done. we really need numerous holistic based techniques to truly meet the greater need for the greater good. if ever the new is to replace the old, then surely the time is now? various arrays of nefarious thinkers have done nothing but fail us. only by taking a aggressive stance to the lessons of history will we ever understand the true nature of the total gaps in the field of knowledge.

the inconsequential have failed us.

Proverbs 22:7

The rich rules over the poor, and the borrower becomes the lender's slave.

Song of Solomon 5:4 (King James Version)

My beloved put in his hand by the hole of the door, and my bowels were moved for him.

It seems to be a logical developmental step that the repetitive and uninspiring tasks of agriculture and manufacturing should be automated.

I had the misfortune of working in a car indicator light factory for many months, and anyone who thinks that's better than unemployment is engaging in a ridiculously idealised view of society, compounded by a lack of imagination.

The challenge is to create other lifetime objectives than those espoused by dysfunctional throwbacks who believe that being on a toilet production line in the 1950s is the only ambition to emulate.

Terrifying as it may seem, the future of humanity and our current society is in the delivery of services - particularly in entertainment, media and the arts.

So the rise of reality television is a stepping stone on that path, or a mis-step depending upon your perspective. It's defining everyday tasks like paper sales companies and entrepreneurial business in terms of their entertainment value rather than their productivity.

We should probably stop taking ourselves so seriously, and crowbar our proletariat down from their bronzed pedestals.

Marx has a lot to answer for.
