The gist of the post was that work is hell, and we are all helpless slaves.
That's not what I thought about the post. The post is centered around time. The time investments people routinely give to "the man" versus the time investments people give towards themselves. The post is pointing to a rather large, and striking discrepancy between time given to "the man," versus time one keeps for themselves.
Consider how people spent their time prior to the industrial revolution. Now exclude the serfs, peasants, and slaves from that consideration.
How many 24/7;365 merchants you think they had in the 1700's?
