I can't comment on the sanity of adaptation - it may well be the most expedient reaction. But your original description of the relative economic positions of worker and employer, and of who accrues the most benefit from the energy expenditure of the worker (hint: it's not the worker), is just simple 20/20 clarity. Not even the most conservative economist could disagree with it. To adapt to this seems an act akin to Stockholm syndrome, but to struggle with it, though perhaps more clear-minded, is also unlikely to bring happiness. But once you've seen what you've seen, you can't unsee it.

- vanderreeah 9y agoI do not know. But there are of course millions of people in our position. I suppose any possible solution can only come from the only strength we have, which is the knowledge of our shared, common situation. EDIT: Jesus I sound pompous sometimes...
- ikeyany 9y agoPompous perhaps but sensible. Please don't stop ranting.
- ikeyany 9y agoDarn it, you stopped ranting.
- vanderreeah 9y agoI only sporadically rant. But thanks for the encouragement.
