    Ah, got it.

    BTW I don’t have much objection to bullshit jobs. They serve as a welfare system which given the lack of a universal alternative is better than unemployment with no income. Somewhat related to the guaranteed job program described by some MMT folks.

      I do have an issue with the idea of forcing people to spend their time doing meaningless tasks just so they can exist. The fact that we have a lot of bullshit jobs is an indication the capitalism is a fundamentally broken system that’s holding humanity back.
