The High Cost of Work: Is It Worth It?
2025-02-11
This essay challenges the conventional understanding of 'work' in contemporary capitalism. The author argues that work, far from being purely productive, transforms biosphere resources into market-driven commodities, exacerbating wealth inequality and causing environmental damage and personal suffering. The essay calls for a reevaluation of work's purpose, advocating a life guided by personal fulfillment and social harmony rather than the relentless pursuit of profit.
