Most of us are stoned as hell while working at our mindless, pointless jobs. Western nations transitioned to a service economy, so we don't produce anything but returns for a business, and we have zero connection to our work.

I'm a gen X, and the economic system ate the fruits of my labor, so I just labor to provide myself basic needs.

I wonder what the next financial crisis will steal from us, but I'm sure we'll find out soon enough.
