Nobody Wants To Work Anymore, They Say.

Maybe They Don’t Want To Be Your Slave?

I have heard people say this over and over. 

“Nobody wants to work any more.”

I see it written online, and I hear it out of the mouths of those around me.

I really do not agree, and I’m going to tell you why.

First, I think it’s the height of hypocrisy for retired people to say “No one wants to work any more.” Because, that’s who I hear saying it 80% of the time.

You literally quit working to do what you enjoy, while blaming others for wanting to do the same.

The difference is that they don’t want to give their life to an employer earning pennies on the dollar, just to maybe someday have a chance to love their life.

They wanna live today.

It’s insane that we support a system that keeps us poor, sick, and beat down, while others get rich on our blood, sweat and tears.

We stupidly wander through life following a carrot called retirement, while pulling a cart full of richmen and their families.

“Nobody wants to work anymore.”

No. No one wants to do the things YOU think they should be doing. No one wants to run and cater to your needs. The slaves are leaving the plantation you rely on. And you don’t like it.

No one wants to get paid chicken feed to do work for you, while you sit on a mountain of cash. No one wants to give hours of their life away, while someone else raises their kids.

And if you say “If you can’t afford kids, you shouldn’t have them.”

Well someone has to birth and raise more slaves for the grinder. Because you certainly won’t let YOUR kids do it. Or maybe you would, because that’s the sort of person you are. Work builds character…right?

It’s insane that we continue to support a system that keeps people in poverty, slaving away their whole life. While others are born into the lap of luxury.

I used to think it’s freedom. The freedom to earn and get wealthy. I still believe it. But, somewhere along the way it became harder and harder to succeed and escape the system.

There is no American Dream.

It’s a carrot to keep you working. Because if everybody was rich who would do the work?

If everybody learned to be free and earn a living, who would be the slaves? 

So, they teach us to be good employees for their businesses. Putting us in government schools we pay for with taxes stolen from our measly paychecks.

They abuse us at our jobs because we are just a number. They can find another worker, they think.

If you ask, “Who are ‘They’?” Then, you must be one of them.

They create and get the laws passed that control us and keep us down. They use their megacorporations to impose rules on millions, they could never get passed in reality.

If they turned their sights, money and power onto helping humanity instead of controlling it. They might get better workers.

People see the uselessness of the system, and why would they want to work any more?

Why have 2 or 3 jobs just to live up to your standards?

People want to work. And work hard on things they love.

Trying to please you isn’t one of them.

Maybe instead of saying, “Nobody wants to work any more”. We should say “Nobody wants to treat workers right any more”

Course, they never did, and we just continue to allow it.
