to be fair, without the PARASITE cabal extracting all of Humanity's time/money/essence at every turn, we would be enjoying the fruit of our labor (which is a lot, actually) instead of just "trying to keep up" until the ever-receding retirement age. we've never known our true wealth.
God knew from the beginning that sin would cause man to toil endlessly. The corruption of man is never ending and unavoidable. How we toil, and the purpose of our toils is what matters, and we should make the best of those decisions
Realistically, we should be toiling throughout the Solar System by now, working on greater, more Edifying problems using devices and techniques which have been stolen from us over the past hundred years (perhaps thousands?) but instead we are stuck in traffic on crumbling roads arguing over our junk while we eat/drink/breathe/read poison to "normalize" disability.
the question is How corrupt is Man? is the toiling meant as purely punitive, or is it for our ultimate/spiritual benefit or to teach a lesson? if the latter, is it still possible for Man to learn that lesson with constant Doubling of the prescribed amount of toiling so that a few PARASITE interlopers can enjoy never working a day in their lives while we spill over the "Karoshi" line? I'm all for creative contribution, maintenance and generating wealth for trade, but it's getting more difficult to avoid seeing that there's an exponentially-growing imbalance, to the point where we are Prevented from contributing meaningfully.
don't forget that we're not the only beings on this planet, there is an Adversary with an entourage of "corrupted virtues" given names which do not appear in the "Book of Life"..
