`compared to current day where some of the hardest workers are barely hanging on` I am not sure if I agree. A software developer and a waitress at a restaurant perhaps works equally hard. However one job can be done by a thousand, other can be done by a million different people. One requires mastery, another may not. To me, only people does not work `that` hard are government workers and most academia. And boy they are a lot.
