> I don't know if its an inability to do anything or a lack of imagination about what is to be done, or what. It is the fact that our lives are ruled by money, and we are inherently selfish creatures. What do you think late-stage capitalism looks like? Everyone starts working harder so we can all die faster and make more money for our boss? If you want to solve it, hire better workers and pay them better. That's the capitalist solution anyways; bugger to you if that guy is solely motivated by money too. And their replacement is probably financially-motivated too, so don't bother trusting them to hold the door for you. You want something "deeply disturbing" to think about? This site is the one that demands marginal returns for their angel investments. Half the users here are either an investor or a builder, each one looking to swindle the other. That is what the opposite of work looks like, not apathy. These people are creating the illusion of a job well done to appease their shareholders and force their customers to stay-put. Then they have the gall to blame operational failures on Joe Shmoe in accounting, when their problem is obviously executive malfunction.
