This is disappointing to see on the front page as it's the 600,000th article since 2007 about why family and health are better life priorities than work. As usual the author, who invariably lives in the white collar tech-bubble, and therefore is bombarded with "hustle culture" stuff in their LinkedIn etc...sets up a strawman and then attempts to dismantle it: >This is a universal longing in a capitalist world — getting ahead of others is the holy grail of life. Why else would you be living if not to have more material things than others? I'm pretty well read in philosophy and economics and I have never once ever heard a serious and well considered argument that material wealth accumulation is a normative goal for any system. Someone please point me to a large subset of people or even one serious philosopher who would make this claim. Further, even the hustle culture people (of whom I'm no fan) don't even make this claim. Here, this is what the American people value in life according to Pew: https://www.pewresearch.org/religion/2018/11/20/where-americans-find-meaning-in-life/ https://www.pewresearch.org/religion/2018/11/20/where-americ... Of course every single author of one of these pieces inevitably gives the literal exact same advice on what SHOULD be considered the priorities and wouldn't you know it looks eerily similar to what people self-report as where they find meaning. Yawn. As a community lets promote better stories to the top.
