Work

A job that provides rising living standards

is a thing of the past.

Now the route to wealth

is through property and pensions

You work hard and you stay poor,

struggling to pay the bills.

In essence nothing has changed

since the middle ages.

Back then you worked hard,stayed poor

and died young

whilst giving a part of what you produced

to the rich Lord of the Manor.

Nowadays you work hard,

you stay poor and you die young

( in the poorest areas such as Blackpool etc etc ) and the people you work for

such as Bezos or Green or Camp

add rapidly to their billions.

"The irony is that when the consumer is made king, workers

are forced to become even more flexible, providing services on a 24-hour cycle,

usually to the detriment of their own health and wellbeing."
