You know what? I've worked for minimum wage, not so long ago. I could still afford running water, Internet, TV, electric lighting, refrigeration, my own automobile (second-hand ofc), and even a cross-country flight once. Weren't these unbelievable luxuries for the first 5000 years of civilization? What king or queen could have afforded half of them in 3000BC, 2000BC, 1000BC, 1AD, 1000AD, or even in Marx's time?
