Is Any Of This Worth It?

Is Any Of This Worth It?

Is any if this worth it? I keep asking myself this. Is waking up before the sun rises to go to a job where you get paid pennies in comparison to what the company makes daily worth it? Is it worth it that your boss gets to sit in his office while you lift fifty plus pounds of the latest mass produced item worth it? Is it worth your sanity? Your time? Your health? Your life? Your job is a prison, your boss is the warden, he decides when you have time for yourself, he decides when you eat, he determines your sleep schedule, you have to ask to use the restroom or for a day off. “Most people hate their jobs” then why do they do them? Because we are trapped, trapped in a system that profits and only goal is to profit no matter the cost you are another number on another spreadsheet. Is living paycheck to paycheck sacrificing half of your life really worth it or are we doing it because everyone else is? Would it be easier to live in the woods? It wouldn’t be, But you would be more free than you are now, your “job” would be surviving, finding food and shelter as does every living thing on earth besides humans. This December has brought winter winds and also a collective awakening of class consciousness for some it has been this way forever for others, welcome, knowing is half the battle and the battle is never over. While I’m here I have to say that things are becoming extremely bleak, this year especially, the so called United States continues to uphold and participate in genocide on a national level with impunity while songs of holiday joy play on every radio station while bombs are being launched at civilians thousands of miles away. its feels like absolute insanity to live in this world we have created were violence is never the correct way to handle any situation yet we participate in a violent system every waking day. When you are asked the trolley problem you never suspect that your really tied to the tracks, you aren’t pulling the lever or driving the trolley you are tied to the tracks with everyone else.

The land of the free is dead.

The American dream is dead.

Live your life how you want to, not how they want you to.

Everything for everyone.
