    Capitalist systems, by design are built for this exact thing. The only people allowed to be creative and pursue works that do not directly generate profit are the elites and their progeny.

    Everyone else is on the express train to exploitation. You earn just enough to feed and shelter yourself… Generally by paying others to provide those things for you as a service, and you have just enough left over to give you hope, that is then robbed from you either by service fees or repairs or maintenance…

    You stay on this treadmill of basically funneling one companies money to other companies, and if you get sick or injured, unable to work, you’re kicked off that treadmill to the curb and left to starve and die, so they can put someone else on the same treadmill you were just using.

    We as the employee’s are simply a transport mechanism for one rich person to indirectly give money to another rich person and vice versa. All while you barely scrape by, and if you’re particularly unlucky, slowly drown in debts you cannot possibly pay back.

    Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think this is any better or worse than any other system of government; anything inherently communal is usually authoritarian, and with anyone being the absolute authority on all the ins and outs of who gets/deserves what, there will be an elite class, and then everyone else.

    The more people realize this, the greater the momentum we will get towards a full on class war, and bluntly, there’s more of us than there are of them.
