If it's all for myself and not for $, I think I can work...

The top one says one in five executives agree with the statement. The corollary to this is the cast majority of executives do not agree with that statement.

I feel like adventure time did a better job explaining systemic oppression as a kids show than most people I've heard try.

There are always underlying assumptions made by people who support industrial-age work for every human being. Things like... 9 to 5 work schedule (or longer) being compatible with their genetics, year round - winter or summer. Paperwork appreciation, having to fill out job applications often with high amounts of redundancy in the questions and formats. Red tape for getting paychecks and accounting. Dress codes and even uniform requirements. Businessmen preferences for rectangle and high-rise buildings that few other animals from Earth seem to construct or use to build loyal followers.

With generic randomness alone, I suspect that 20%+ of a population on Pale Blue Dot never fit in with what their local society considers perfectly "normal" conformity and biological needs in industrialized world.

My work ethic is to work by myself until i can actually support an employee. Until then, this is my business & my responsibility.
